Please choose one of the following topics:

  1. Chisholm      argues that the following two statements are incompatible:
    1. He       could have done otherwise
    2. If       he had chosen to do otherwise, he would have done otherwise

Explain and evaluate his argument, as well as the conclusions he draws from it. Is the notion of ‘agent causation’ coherent? Can we make it plausible?

2. Does the ability to do otherwise preclude knowledge of one’s future actions? Base your discussion on Ayer’s compatibilist argument.

Papers should be about 900 words long (no fewer than 800 and no more than 1000). Both the expository and the evaluative parts of the question ought to be answered. You should take our readings and discussion into account when writing your paper.
