«Free Will and Moral Responsibility»
Summer school organized by the Center in 2014. The school was led by John Fisher, a professor at the University of California, who was assisted by Professor Matthew Talbert, a professor at the University of West Virginia. The school was attended by graduate students and young scientists from the United States, Great Britain, Sweden and Russia who passed the competitive selection. The main theme of the school was the problem of the correlation of free will and moral responsibility. Is free will a condition of moral responsibility? What are the conditions of free will itself? Can we bear moral responsibility in cases where we are unable to follow moral norms? You can find a discussion of these and other issues on the MCCS
YouTube channel.
