The Priority Principle
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Some philosophers say that you do not think in the primary or nonderivative sense.

In this paper, I argue that this is a mistake. We do not inherit our thoughts in this way. keywords: personal ontology, metaphysics, philosophy of mind

متن کاملFault and the allocation of spare organs.
This paper argues that rectificatory justice should supplement distributive justice in allocating priority of access to scarce medical resources. Where a patient is at fault for the scarcity of healthy organs a principle of restitution requires that she should give priority to the faultless.
