Personal Identity and Self-Concern
Original language description
In my talk I assess the necessary conditions for the rationality of self-concern. I challenge the assumption that anticipation is necessary for self-concern and, thus, psychological theory of personal identity is the most adequate theory to justify self-concern. I argue that self-concern is a broader form of concern that covers even unconscious episodes of our lives and even posthumous events. I further argue that a suitably adjusted narrative theory of personal identity can account for this extended form of self-concern.
