"Ought" implies "practical possibility"
pp. 79-95
Abstrakt
It is common among moral, political and legal philosophers to claim or assume that "ought" implies "can". By this, they mean that if an agent cannot perform a given action, then it cannot be the case that such an action is required of the agent. In short, one cannot have the duty to do the impossible.
