Perception, Normativity and Action in Contemporary Philosophy of Mind and Cognitive Science

Working on the background of a view of mind as “in action”, as pragmatically shaped by its own dynamic interactions with the world, emerging from the achievements of contemporary philosophy of mind (from Searle to enactivism)and cognitive science (from Gibson to Goodale and Milner)I aim to propose a view of perception as a form of human activity of which we are responsible, and in which our “commitment” to truth and rationality can take place. Against some recent phenomenalist and antirepresentationalist views of perception I'll try to show that the action-oriented character of perception does not challenge its rational constraint to a right representation of the state of affairs which it i…

Aidòs. Percorsi di etica del limite

2022

Come già Platone intuì con il mito di Protagora, la tecnica è figlia della finitezza. C’è tecnica, infatti, lì dove c’è bisogno di migliorare; ma lo stesso bisogno di migliorare è segno che non c’è ancora compimento. Nel crescente darsi da fare della tecnologia per strappare alla vita la sua imperfezione si nasconde così uno strano paradosso: lo scopo della tecnica non può che essere il proprio togliersi. Solo lì dove non ci sarà più tecnica, infatti, potrà esserci quella pienezza a cui l’uomo, tramite la tecnica, aspira. Ne consegue che il progresso qualitativo e quantitativo della tecnologia, lungi dall’avvicinarci gradualmente a un ultimo limite che sarà finalmente superato, è cifra di u…

Moral Responsibility and Moral Harm

2009

I will investigate the relations between the concepts of moral harm and moral responsibility. On such a basis I will question the conceptual soundness of descriptivism, on which consequentialist and non-consequentialist arguments are often grounded. Finally, I will defend a certain version of ascriptivism.

Penal Contextualism and Ideational Frameworks: A Guide for the Perplexed

2017

In my paper, I attempt a critical review of Nicola Lacey’s book In Search of Criminal Responsibility, by arguing, firstly, that she gives the categories of “character responsibility” and “capacity responsibility” an over-inclusive account, which results from her filling each of them with views that are not only disparate but also based, at least in part, on conflicting principles; and, secondly, that Lacey’s spelling out of various conceptions of “criminal responsibility” necessarily entails an underlying unitary definition of its subject matter, that is, the concept of “criminal responsibility,” which seems to conflict with her (version of) penal contextualism.

The Personal Nature of Individual Criminal Responsibility and the ICC Statute

2007

By affirming criminal responsibility of the individual, the ICC Statute recognizes a distinction from the international responsibility of states, which is the basis of modern international criminal law. The importance of the principle is evident not only in the breadth and analytical nature of the provision dealing with it, i.e. Article 25 of the Statute, but by its being placed in the part of the Statute devoted to the ‘General Principles of Criminal Law’. After an introductory consideration of the context of the Article and of its general implications, this article analyses the contents of the regulation and the type of responsibility outlined in it. The principle that emerges could be ca…

Choosing the Right Cause: The Moderating Role of Meta-Cognitions in Cause-Related Marketing Effectiveness

2015

In recent years, consumers’ expectations in terms of corporate obligations have changed, such that the ethical and philanthropic dimensions of Carroll’s (1979) corporate social responsibility (CSR) pyramid have evolved from desired to presupposed responsibilities. Beyond the consequentially increasing prevalence of CSR activities, considerable attention has been given to cause-related marketing (CRM) in marketing research and practice (Bigne Alcaniz, Chumpitaz Caceres, and Curras Perez, 2010). CRM is defined as a “process of formulating and implementing marketing activities that are characterized by an offer from the firm to contribute a specified amount to a designated cause when customers…
