Professor Victor Tadros
In each of the five years of the Roots of Responsibility ERC project , we have two special lectures by leading scholars in philosophy and law. The third lecture in this series will be given by Professor Victor Tadros (Warwick), and it will be streamed online via Zoom.
Professor Tadros's lecture is entitled ‘Treatment and Accountability’. He will argue that, concerning, the contrast between responsible and non-responsible conduct, ‘responsibility does not depend on responsiveness to reasons [as the standard view has it] but rather just on appropriate causal connections between a person’s values and attitudes and her actions’. The lecture will be of interest to researchers and students working on responsibility in law, philosophy, and other cognate areas.
