Recenzii
Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty; general readers.
It is essential reading for philosophers interested in this topic. The book also helps us see how central questions of standing and authority are to moral practice and so should be read by anyone interested in second-personal issues in ethics more generally.
The Beam and The Mote: One Blame, Standing, and Normativity contains several new and insightful arguments. Its prose is clear and crisp, and it covers the debate over the standing to blame outstandingly, comprehensively assessing existing accounts of what standing is, how one can lose one's standing to blame, and why standingless blame is wrong. Particularly significant are the novel objections raised to Matt King's account that hypocritical blame is wrong because it involves violating a moral norm of attention (or attending to the "wrong" things). In sum, the monograph is a must-read for philosophers working on standing to hold responsible and a great introduction to the issue of standing for the curiousminded.
