The Garden Reading Group - The Metaphysical Irrelevance of the Compatibilism Debate

I'm really excited to present Mark Balaguer's paper, The Metaphysical Irrelevance of the Compatibilism Debate (and, More Generally, of Conceptual Analysis) for your edification. I contacted Mark and asked if we could use the paper as the focus of a reading group as soon as I'd read it, because I thought it deserved the widest possible audience and because it is so provocative. Here it is, with the kind permission of the Southern Journal of Philosophy.

I've closed comments on this post, because I want the discussion to take place in the comments thread of a single post. That post will go up in a few days time, and will contain my commentary on Mark's paper together with his reply.
