Free Choice and Contextually Permitted Actions
We present a solution to the paradox of free choice permission by introducingstrong and weak permission in a deontic logic of action. It is shown how counterintuitive consequences of strong permission can be avoided by limiting the contexts in which an action can be performed. This is done by introducing the only operator, which allows us to say that only is performed (and nothing else), and by...
متن کاملImperatives as Obligatory and Permitted Actions
We present a dynamic deontic model for the interpretation of imperative sentences in terms of Obligation (O) and Permission (P). Under the view that imperatives prescribe actions and unlike the so-called “standard solution” (Huntley, 1984) these operators act over actions rather that over statements. Then by distinguishing obligatory from non obligatory actions we tackle the paradox of Free Cho...
متن کاملActions in Social Choice
This thesis concerns a specific procedure for social choice of a group action under uncertainty. It consists of three main parts. First we investigate formal desiderata for the single agent case. Next the model’s position relative to varying disciplines is considered. Finally we provide an implementation of the full multiagent model in the programming language Haskell.
متن کاملCollective Actions and Rational Choice Explanations
In order for rational choice theory (RCT) to explain the production of collective action, it must be able to distinguish between two behaviorally identical possibilities: one, that all of the agents in a group are each performing behaviors in pursuit of a set of individual actions; and two, that all of those agents are performing those behaviors in pursuit of a collective action. I argue that t...
متن کاملBordism, and Free Group Actions
In this paper we give characteristic class formulae for all semicharacteristic classes of all compact, closed manifolds with finite fundamental groups. These invariants are identified with elements in certain odd L-groups, and exactly which elements occur is specified. An appendix calculates the cohomology of the model groups needed. A second appendix determines the structure of the L-groups ne...
