Recenzii
"This book offers an engaging and enlightening discussion of corporate or collective responsibility. Accessible and elegant, it offers a valuable perspective on the many issues it addresses".
Philip Pettit, L. S. Rockefeller University Professor of Human Values, Princeton University; Distinguished Professor of Philosophy, Australian National University
"What Responsibility? Whose Responsibility? is an important new contribution to the literature on collective responsibility. Neog deftly avoids the many pitfalls and temptations that we find in much philosophical writing about the topic. He recognizes the full variety of phenomena that we regard as falling under it, along with their varying moral significance. He neither assimilates one kind to another, nor any of them to the paradigm case of individual agency. Most importantly of all, he reminds us that individuals are socially formed, and so it is crucial to avoid an overly individualistic interpretation of the paradigm case."
Carol Rovane, Violin Family Professor of Philosophy, Chair Contemporary Civilization, Columbia University
A compelling argument that we need a coherent notion of collective agency in order to account for the collective responsibility of groups. Neog carefully articulates a non-individualist conception of collective agency that does justice to the phenomenon in a way that individualism cannot, but which avoids the more extravagant commitments of collectivist accounts. The quasi-collectivist account offered here is a convincing and valuable contribution to the literature on collective agency.
