Discussion Notes on Rettler’s Active Reflection
Seong Soo Park
According to Rettler, there are three types of control that we should consider in relation to the legitimacy of doxastic blame: Intention-based, reason-based, and influence-based control. Rettler argues that among these, influence-based control is the only type of control that is necessary and sufficient for fulfilling the control condition required for legitimate doxastic blame. The aim of this short discussion paper is to critically assess Rettler’s view of doxastic control. By doing so, I attempt to defend the reason-responsiveness view from Rettler’s criticism and cast doubt on whether influence-based control has a positive epistemic influence on beliefs.
