Die Arbeit verfolgt den Gnostizismus in der Philosophie und
Asthetik der Moderne. Im Mittelpunkt stehen Ludwig Klages, der
junge Bloch, Heidegger und Adorno, deren Werke strukturelle
Verwandschaften mit gnostischem Denken erkennen lassen.
Exploring the Illusion of Free Will and Moral Responsibility
investigates the philosophical and scientific arguments for free
will skepticism and their implications. Skepticism about free will
and moral responsibility has been on the rise in recent years. In
fact, a significant number of philosophers, psychologists, and
neuroscientists now either doubt or outright deny the existence of
free will and/or moral responsibility-and the list of prominent
skeptics appears to grow by the day. Given the profound importance
that the concepts of free will and moral responsibility hold in our
lives-in understanding ourselves, society, and the law-it is
important that we explore what is behind this new wave of
skepticism. It is also important that we explore the potential
consequences of skepticism for ourselves and society. Edited by
Gregg D. Caruso, this collection of new essays brings together an
internationally recognized line-up of contributors, most of whom
hold skeptical positions of some sort, to display and explore the
leading arguments for free will skepticism and to debate their
implications.
