Abstract

- The responsibility and forgiveness literatures have only recently begun to influence one another in a significant way. The aim of this chapter is to introduce a common model of forgiveness and some recent challenges to it, each of which highlights potential connections between forgiveness and responsibility. According to the Standard View, to forgive is to overcome one’s blame toward a culpable wrongdoer. One of the most compelling alternatives to this view is the Norm Changing View, which understands forgiving as the exercise of a normative power that changes what the offender owes the victim. Which of these views one prefers has implications for how one understands the various features of forgiveness, including who can forgive, the difficulty of forgiving, and the possibility of withdrawing forgiveness.
