englischWhat do we mean by ‚negligence‘ and why are we responsible for our negligent actions? This book reconstructs our linguistic, moral and legal usage of the concept of negligence and demonstrates that there is an overarching, intrinsically normative concept underlying our evaluative practices of ascribing negligence. Philosophical action theory provides the means to spell out the conditions under which can speak of ‘negligent actions’. In line with Joseph Raz the author concludes that to solve the ‘problem of negligence’, i.e. to justify moral and legal responsibility for all cases of negligence we have to take recourse to a specific conception of an agent’s ‘rational functioning’. – The author has graduated in law and philosophy and works on questions of practical philosophy, especially in ethics and philosophy of law.

»ist es eine wahre Freude, einer sprachlich souveränen und streng analytisch vorgehenden Philosophin beim Denken gleichsam über die Schulter blicken zu können.«
