The philosophical inquiry of responsibility is a major and
fast-growing field. It not only features questions around free will
and moral agency but also addresses various challenges in the social,
institutional, and legal contexts in which people are being held
responsible. The Routledge Handbook of Philosophy of Responsibility is
an outstanding survey and exploration of these issues. Comprised of
forty-one chapters by an international team of contributors, the
Handbook is divided into three clear parts – on the history, the
theory, and the practice of responsibility – within which the
following key topics are examined: responsibility and wrongdoing
responsibility and determinism the scope of responsibility the
responsibility of individuals within society the concepts of
responsibility the conditions and challenges of responsibility the
practices of being and holding responsible the ethics and politics of
responsibility responsibility in the law Including suggestions for
further reading at the end of each chapter, The Routledge Handbook of
Philosophy of Responsibility provides an extremely useful guide to the
topic. It will be valuable reading for students and researchers in
philosophy and applied ethics, as well as for those in related fields
such as politics, law, and policymaking.
