  David Shoemaker develops a novel pluralistic theory of responsibility, motivated by our ambivalence to cases of marginal agency-such as those caused by clinical depression or autism, for instance. He identifies three distinct types of responsibility, each with its own set of required capacities: attributability, answerability, and accountability.
