Bio/Description
Carolina Sartorio is a professor of philosophy at Rutgers University, New Brunswick. She works in the philosophy of action, ethics, and metaphysics. In her recent books “Causation and Free Will” (Oxford University Press, 2016) and “Causalism: Unifying Action and Free Action” (Oxford University Press, 2023), she defends a naturalistic picture of human agency, free will, and moral responsibility. While at Princeton, she will be working on a project concerning the role of philosophical analysis in an investigation of the concept of criminal responsibility. In particular, she will be thinking about the role played by the causal contributions of human agents and the relation between moral and metaphysical principles.
