Resumen
MOYA, Carlos J.. Doing One’s Best, Alternative Possibilities, and Blameworthiness. Crítica (Méx., D.F.) [online]. 2014, vol.46, n.136, pp.3-26. Epub 11-Dic-2019. ISSN 0011-1503.
My main aim in this paper is to improve and give further support to a defense of the Principle of Alternative Possibilities (PAP) against Frankfurt cases which I put forward in some previous work. In the present paper I concentrate on a recent and famous Frankfurt case, Derk Pereboom’s “Tax Evasion”. After presenting the essentials of my defense of PAP and applying it to this case, I go on to consider several objections that have been (or might be) raised against it and argue that they don’t succeed. I conclude by pointing out that my criticism of Pereboom’s example suggests a general strategy against other actual or possible Frankfurt cases.
