| Summary: | Part of a special issue on John Martin Fischer. The writer considers John Martin Fischer's compatibilism and focuses on the threat to Fischer's argument from indeterminism. He contends that the threat does indeed form part of the family of indeterminism and develops a proposal for neutralizing the threat, using Fischer's work. He attempts to demonstrate that Fischer's theory of moral responsibility is more powerful than what Fischer himself realized. |
