We live in a morally flawed world. Our lives are complicated by
what other people do, and by the harms that flow from our social,
economic and political institutions. Our relations as individuals
to these collective harms constitute the domain of complicity. This
book examines the relationship between collective responsibility
and individual guilt. It presents a rigorous philosophical account
of the nature of our relations to the social groups in which we
participate, and uses that account in a discussion of contemporary
moral theory. Christopher Kutz shows that the two prevailing
theories of moral philosophy, Kantianism and consequentialism, both
have difficulties resolving problems of complicity. He then argues
for a richer theory of accountability in which any real
understanding of collective action not only allows but demands
individual responsibility.
