This web site is my (Craig DeLancey’s) work in philosophy.

Here are some links to my research:

Work in Progress

My current work in philosophy is primarily concerned with: teleology, free will, and the nature of progress and opposition to progress.

  • I recently finished a book on Camus’s metaphysics and teleology. This is forthcoming from Notre Dame University Press.
  • I’m developing a general theory of both descriptive and normative teleology.
  • I am completing a book on free will and the concept of the person. I argue that we have frequently relied upon a very misleading conception of the agent and of the person, and this has led to a confusing misunderstanding of free will.
  • I am working with another colleague on a book about opposition to progress.

I’d be grateful to anyone interested in reading or discussing preliminary work.
