Proximate Causation of Action
The Causal Theory of Action says, in essence, that an event involving a person is a human action just in case that event has the requisite causal antecedents. The event of a person's arm rising is the action of his raising his arm when, and only when, the arm's rising is caused by an appropriate event. This is a functional account of human action in that action is analyzed not by means of any 'intrinsic' properties, but in virtue of its causal ro…
Events
Originally published in 1986. The theory of events presented is one that construes events to be concrete particulars; and it embodies an attempt to take seriously the idea that events are the changes that objects undergo when they change. The theory is about what an event really is, about when events are identical, about what properties events have essentially, and about what relations events bear to entities of other kinds. In addition, this boo…
Intending and Acting
Three decades ago, philosophers began to devote considerable attention to a group of problems concerning human action. In the first stage they concentrated on providing an action theory that could be used to resolve some traditional philosophical problems, such as the free-will issue, the mind-body problem, and the conditions for attribution of responsibility. About that time it became clear that philosophical action theory could not, by itself, …
