Abstract

In "Incompatibilism and the Past," Andrew Bailey engages in a thorough investigation of what he calls the "no past objection" to arguments for incompatibilism. This is an objection that stems from the work of Joseph Keim Campbell and that has generated an interesting literature. Bailey ends by offering his own answer to the 'no past objection' by giving his own argument for incompatibilism, an argument that he claims to be immune to the objection. We have some observations to make regarding what we take to be Bailey's answer to the objection (all of whose details are left to the reader -- we attempt to fill this lacuna).
