ABSTRACT

I explore the relationship between psychiatric fictionalism and the attribution of moral responsibility. My central claim is as follows. If one is a psychiatric fictionalist, one should also strongly consider being a fictionalist about responsibility. This results in the ‘intrinsic view’, namely, the view that mental illness does not just happen to interfere with moral responsibility: that interference is an intrinsic part of the narrative. I end by discussing three illustrative examples.

精神病虚构主义和责任叙事

摘要

我探讨了精神病虚构主义与道德责任归因之间的关系。我的中心主张如下。如果一个人是精神病学小说家，那么他也应该强烈考虑成为一个关于责任的小说家。这导致了“内在观点”，即认为精神疾病不只是碰巧干扰道德责任的观点：干扰是叙述的内在部分。最后，我将讨论三个说明性示例。
