Modest libertarianism aims to specify the sort of control that suffices for moral responsibility without appealing to metaphysically exotic agents or forms of causation. I critically discuss two versions of modest libertarianism, one more robust than the other, with the primary aim of developing and defending the following sort of requirement for moral responsibility: an agent is responsible for performing an action only if there is an explanation (that need not be deterministic) in terms of prior reasons of why the agent performs the action that she does rather than some alternative.
