World War I Battlefield nurse Bess Crawford’s career is in jeopardy when a murder is committed on her watch, in this absorbing and atmospheric historical mystery from New York Times bestselling author Charles Todd. Home on leave, Bess Crawford is asked to accompany a wounded soldier confined to a wheelchair to Buckingham Palace, where he’s to be decorated by the King. The next morning when Bess goes to collect Wilkins, he has vanished. Both the Army and the nursing service hold Bess negligent for losing the war hero, and there will be an inquiry. Then comes disturbing word from the Shropshire police, complicating the already difficult situation: Wilkins has been spotted, and he’s killed a man. If Bess is to save her own reputation, she must find Wilkins and uncover the truth. But the elusive soldier has disappeared again and even the Shropshire police have lost him. Suddenly, the moral implications of what has happened—that a patient in her charge has committed murder—become more important to Bess than her own future. She’s going to solve this mysterious puzzle, but righting an injustice and saving her honor may just cost Bess her life.

In my dissertation, I evaluate two traditional threats to free will and moral responsibility: the threat posed by causal determinism, and the threat posed by fatalism. In the first part of the dissertation, I argue that moral responsibility is incompatible with determinism. I do so by building on (and, I hope, improving) the so-called manipulation arguments for incompatibilism. Manipulation arguments challenge the compatibilist to distinguish between our actions being deterministically manipulated by other agents and their simply being determined by brute natural chance. I then focus on the threat posed by fatalism . On logical fatalism, from the fact that it was true (say) 1000 years ago that I would write my dissertation, it follows that I could not have done otherwise than write it. And on theological fatalism, from the fact that an infallible God believed 1000 years ago that I would write this dissertation, it follows that I could not have done otherwise than write it. The most promising replies to such arguments ultimately invoke the notion of dependence : it is because we do the things we do that it was true 1000 years ago that we would do these things, or that God then believed we would do these things. The question, however, is what sort of dependence is required, and whether it is plausible to suppose that the various things in the distant past could have depended (in the needed sense) on what we do now . On my account, it turns out that it is fact not plausible that such prior truths (and especially any past divine beliefs) could have depended in the needed sense on what we do. What my results thus suggest is that, if we are to be free and responsible, the future must be open . However, I develop one more or less unknown way of responding to these arguments: that the future is not open, but instead is mutable . Even though I reject this view, I hope to show that it has far more going for it than we have yet realized.

This dissertation is an analysis of how presidents make foreign policy decisions. Rather than explaining foreign policy decisions by focusing on individuals or institutions, I stress the role of political pressures and context faced by presidents. It shows that foreign policy decisions are not merely a reaction to stimulus from the international or domestic arenas but involve political considerations that affect policy choice. The dynamic elements in the argument are political resources and risk. The relationship between the risk propensity of the president and presidential political resources provides an important link to understanding foreign policy decisions. Within the realm of good public policy, a politically rational president can choose to act or respond to foreign policy disputes in various ways, including diplomacy, political coercion, economic coercion, covert action, or military intervention, based on his assessment of the political context and his willingness to accept the associated risks. The level of presidential political resources determines the risk propensity of the president. Presidential foreign policy decisions will vary depending on the quantity of available political resources. Thus, understanding the risk propensity of the president increases our ability to explain foreign policy decisions. The contribution of this research is the identification of a mechanism for understanding how the interaction between the domestic and international political environments, and individual decision-makers influence foreign policy decisions. My research bridges the gap between structural theories, "theories that make predictions about foreign policy outcomes without reference to the cognition and actions of the actors themselves" and decision-making theories that stress the role of the actors (Ikenberry 2002, 5). Although the component parts of the foreign policy decision making system are widely known, we lack theories that tie the pieces together.
