CURCO COBOS, Felipe. Chance and ethics: responsibility and moral luck. Sig. Fil [online]. 2021, vol.23, n.46, pp.60-89.  Epub 04-Abr-2022. ISSN 1665-1324.

In 1976, Nagel and Williams presented -at the congress of the Aristotelian Society- two famous texts aimed at exposing the challenge that chance and fortune represent for moral thought. Since then, hundreds of articles have proliferated in the literature focused on analyzing this dilemma. This debate, however, is rarely situated within the analysis of the implausible and false premises that give rise to it. In this paper I reconstruct the central coordinates in which this philosophical problem originates. Later, I show that imputation of ethical responsibility to an agent not only does not exclude, but even presupposes, what I will call an impure capacity for agency where luck occupies a central place.

Palavras-chave : moral character; fortune; moral agency; legal imputation; lucky egalitarianism.
