Robert Lockie’s Transcendental Arguments against Determinism

Abstract

In the paper, I first discuss the main theses of R. Lockie’s epistemology, which is based on deontological internalism, doxastic anti-voluntarism and metaphysical externalism. Then I present his concept of freedom, understood in terms of self-determination, and point out a number of problems to which this concept leads. In the next section I attempt to show why his transcendental arguments for the existence of freedom from the determist critique are ineffective. One of the main conclusions of the analyzes is the metaphilosophical condition that must be met by a correct transcendental argument for a given philosophical thesis from the criticism of the opposite position

Keywords:

Robert Lockie, deontic internalism, self-determinism, determinism, freedom, transcendental arguments
