- W2548907041 abstract "This article contends that recent attempts to construct Frankfurt-style cases (FSCs) are irrelevant to the debate over free will. The principle of alternate possibilities (PAP) states that moral responsibility requires indeterminism, or multiple possible futures. Frankfurt's original case purported to demonstrate PAP false by showing an agent can be blameworthy despite not having the ability to choose otherwise; however he admits the agent can come to that choice freely or by force, and thus has alternate possibilities. Neo-FSCs attempt to show that alternate possibilities are irrelevant to explaining an agent's moral responsibility, but a successful Neo-FSC would be consistent with the truth of PAP, and thus is silent on the big metaphysical issues at the center of the free will debate. Introduction Frankfurt-style cases (FSCs) are modeled after a case in Harry Frankfurt's Alternate Possibilities and Moral Responsibility, where in an agent is purported to be uncontroversially morally responsible despite lacking the ability to do otherwise. If FSCs are as advertised, they would be counterexamples to the principle of alternate possibilities (PAP), according to which one is morally responsible for something only if she could do otherwise. Much has been written about FSCs, but the general consensus is that they fail to be genuine counterexamples to PAP. The reason FSCs have garnered such attention is that PAP is said to play a vital role in the debate over whether free will is consistent with determinism. Contemporary proponents of FSCs have largely abandoned the goal of constructing a counterexample to PAP, and instead aim to show merely that alternate possibilities don't play a role in determining an agent's degree of moral responsibility.
