Corvino, FaustoIn this article, I firstly discuss the person-affecting view of harm, distinguishing between the liability and the structural models of responsibility, and also explaining why it is unsatisfactory, from a moral point of view, to interpret a given harm as a loss with respect to a diachronic baseline. Then, I take sweatshops as an example and I entertain two further issues that are related to the assessment of harm and that are necessary for operationalising a comprehensive model of responsibility, that takes into account both liability and structural injustice. The first one is how to interpret harm when it is coexistent with a diachronic benefit and/or the parties involved in the social structures leading to harm seek to unload their responsibility by hiding behind a cooperative deadlock. The second one is how far along the chain of actions leading to harm can structural responsibility be extended.application/pdfhttps://ejournals.epublishing.ekt.gr/index.php/Conatus/article/view/24898engThe NKUA Applied Philosophy Research LaboratoryCopyright (c) 2020 Fausto Corvinohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0Conatus-Περιοδικό Φιλοσοφίας2459-38422653-9373Conatus - Περιοδικό Φιλοσοφίας; Τόμ. 5 Αρ. 2 (2020): Conatus - Journal of Philosophy; 9-23Conatus - Journal of Philosophy; Vol. 5 No. 2 (2020): Conatus - Journal of Philosophy; 9-23exploitationsweatshopsharmresponsibilitystructural injusticeSweatshops, Harm and Exploitation: A Proposal to Operationalise the Model of Structural Injusticeinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion2020-12-31Δημοσίευση σε περιοδικόPublication in journalΦιλοσοφίαPhilosophyisi - Philosophy covers resources on every branch of philosophy including logic, metaphysics, epistemology, descriptive ethics, and metaphilosophy.Επιστημονικό άρθροScientific articleΕργαστήριο Εφαρμοσμένης ΦιλοσοφίαςGreek Aggregator OpenArchives.gr | National Documentation Centre (EKT)
