This article argues in defense of the concept of moral responsibility as key to our moral practices and such that naturalistic and empirical arguments cannot undermine it. Rather than a challenge against naturalism per se, it is an attempt to show that the claim that we cannot dispense with the concept of moral responsibility does not force us outside the bounds of the naturalistic construal of reality. The argument rests on a dialogical interpretation of the concept. By clarifying the dialogical nature of responsibility and specifying its implications, it calls into question the reductive and eliminativist pretenses of naturalism.
Keywords: Freedom, Choice, Korsgaard, Naturalism, Responsibility, Strawson.
