Abstract

This paper presents a logic-based framework to analyze responsibility, which I refer to as intentional epistemic act-utilitarian stit theory (IEAUST). To be precise, IEAUST is used to model and syntactically characterize various modes of responsibility, where by 'modes of responsibility' I mean instances of Broersen's three categories of responsibility (causal, informational, and motivational responsibility), cast against the background of particular deontic contexts. IEAUST is obtained by integrating a modal language to express the following components of responsibility on stit models: agency, epistemic notions, intentionality, and different senses of obligation. With such a language, I characterize the components of responsibility using particular formulas. Then, adopting a compositional approach -- where complex modalities are built out of more basic ones -- these characterizations of the components are used to formalize the aforementioned modes of responsibility.
基于逻辑的责任分析
本文提出了一种基于逻辑的责任分析框架,我将其称为意图认知行为功利主义理论(IEAUST)。准确地说,IEAUST被用来对各种责任模式进行建模和句法表征,这里的“责任模式”指的是Broersen的三种责任(因果责任、信息责任和动机责任)的实例,它们是在特定的道义背景下形成的。IEAUST通过整合一种模态语言来表达stit模型上责任的以下组成部分:代理、认知概念、意向性和不同的义务感。在这种语言中,我使用特定的公式来描述责任的组成部分。然后,采用组合方法——复杂的模式是由更基本的模式构建而成的——这些组件的特征被用来形式化前面提到的责任模式。
