1	The Flicker of Freedom: A Reply to Stump Capes, Justin A. 01 January 2014 (has links) In a fascinating article in The Journal of Ethics, Eleonore Stump contends that while the flicker of freedom defense is the best available strategy for defending the principle of alternative possibilities against the threat posed to that principle by the Frankfurt cases, the defense is ultimately unsuccessful. In this article I identify a number of difficulties with Stump’s criticism of the flicker strategy. Along the way, I also clarify various nuances of the strategy that often get overlooked, and I highlight the advantages of one version of it in particular. alternative possibilities Elenore Stump flicker of freedom Frankfurt cases moral responsibility
2	Frankfurt Cases: The Fine-Grained Response Revisited Capes, Justin A., Swenson, Philip 01 April 2017 (has links) Frankfurt cases are supposed to provide us with counterexamples to the principle of alternative possibilities. Among the most well known responses to these cases is what John Fischer has dubbed the flicker of freedom strategy. Here we revisit a version of this strategy, which we refer to as the fine-grained response. Although a number of philosophers, including some who are otherwise unsympathetic to Frankfurt’s argument, have dismissed the fine grained response, we believe there is a good deal to be said on its behalf. We argue, in particular, that reflection on certain cases involving omissions undermines the main objections to the response and also provides the groundwork for an argument in support of it. alternative possibilities flicker of freedom Frankfurt cases moral responsibility omissions
3	Does Justin Capes successfully show that Eleonore Stump’s rejection of the flicker of freedom defense fails? Josephsson, Elias January 2023 (has links) Firstly, I will introduce the thought experiments known as the Frankfurt-style cases. Secondly,I will present the flicker of freedom defense. Thirdly, I will clarify why Stump rejects the flicker of freedom defense. Then I will present Capes’s response to Stump’s assessment of the 2flicker of freedom defense. Next, I will analyze Capes’s and Stump’s positions and argue that Capes successfully shows that Stump’s rejection fails. Lastly, I will discuss an implication the flicker of freedom defense has for the Frankfurt-style cases, which has not been addressed to my knowledge. the flicker of freedom defense Frankfurt-style cases alternative possibilities moral responsibility Eleonore Stump Justin Capes Philosophy Filosofi
