Saba Bazargan-Forward, "Authority, Cooperation, and Accountability" (Oxford UP, 2022)
b'We often find ourselves acting in concert with others, where what we do\\xa0together\\xa0goes beyond the causal contribution of any single participant. When a collection of individuals works together in a way that results in a wrongful harm, it\\u2019s intuitive to think that each of the participants should be held accountable. Yet this intuition needs to be squared with the fact that no single individual\\u2019s contribution was causally necessary for the wrongful harm to have occurred. Hence there\\u2019s a range of views about \\u201ccollective responsibility\\u201d that posit group agents and collective intentions.\\nIn\\xa0Authority, Cooperation, and Accountability\\xa0(Oxford UP,\\xa02022),\\xa0Saba Bazargan-Forward\\xa0develops a different approach. On his view, ordinary features of human agency can be disbursed across individuals in a way that forms a\\xa0division of agential labor. When such a division of labor is established, puzzles about collective responsibility can be resolved.\\n\\ufeffRobert Talisse\\xa0is the W. Alton Jones Professor of Philosophy at Vanderbilt University.\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
