From Morality to the End of Reason: An Essay on Rights, Reasons, and Responsibility
Persson, Ingmar (University of Gothenburg / Oxford Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics, University of Oxford)
Ingmar Persson presents a new analysis of common sense morality--in particular the act-omission doctrine and the doctrine of double effect. He traces both doctrines to a theory of rights and a conception of responsibility as based on causation, and provides an original account of what it is to have a reason for action.
