Abstract

This chapter addresses the question of moral and epistemic responsibility for intellectual vices and the beliefs that stem from them. It distinguishes three aspects of responsibility: accountability, answerability, and attributability. It argues that people are accountable but not fully answerable for their intellectual vices that are also attributable to them. Nevertheless, the chapter also cautions against blaming (in the sense of resenting) those who are blameworthy because one might lack the standing required to blame others. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the importance of taking responsibility for oneself and the importance for self-respect of adopting this stance.
错误、责任、指责和压迫
这一章讨论了道德和认知责任的问题,以及源于这些问题的信仰。它区分了责任的三个方面:问责、可答责性和归因性。它认为,人们有责任,但不能完全为他们的智力缺陷负责,这些缺陷也可以归因于他们。然而,这一章也提醒人们不要指责(在怨恨的意义上)那些应该受到指责的人,因为一个人可能缺乏指责他人所需的地位。本章最后讨论了对自己负责的重要性,以及采取这种立场对自尊的重要性。
