Abstract | The publication of Derek Parfit's Reasons and Persons in 1984 revived and reshaped the debate on personal identity in Western philosophy. Not only does Parfit argue forcefully and ingeniously for a revisionary reductionist theory of persons and their diachronic identity,but he also draws radical normative inferences from such a theory. Along the way he also mentions Indian Buddhist parallels to his own reductionist theory. Some of these parallels are explored here,while particular attention is also paid to the supposed normative implications of reductionism. |
