Title

Abstract

In this talk, I explore how and why a class of self-effacing reasons for action might be problematic, in light of the so-called epistemic condition on responsibility. Having distinguished between three kinds of self-effacement that could affect the class of reasons under consideration, content-, function- and circumstance-related self-effacement, I sketch a possible way of revisiting the role of knowledge in responsibility ascriptions, beyond the epistemic condition.
