Metaphysics & Logic Seminar: Gill Russell: “Normativity, Neutrality, and Normativity and Neutrality”
Metaphysics & Logic Seminar: Gill Russell: “Normativity, Neutrality, and Normativity and Neutrality”
Neutrality and normativity have both attracted attention in the recent philosophy of logic. In this paper I ask: can we consistently hold that logic is both non-neutral and non-normative when it comes to logics for normative sentences? (e.g. deontic logics.) If these fail to be neutral won鈥檛 they commit themselves on questions of substantive normative…

Delineating Epistemic Injustice The notion of epistemic injustice wasn鈥檛 originally intended to be a catch-all term for harms generated by or within our epistemic practices (such as our practice of testimony). Fricker鈥檚 project was one of聽delineation; she wanted to 鈥榙elineate a distinctive class of wrongs, namely those in which someone is ingenuously downgraded and/or disadvantaged… |

Abstract: 聽 Normative inferentialist approaches to semantics in the tradition of Robert Brandom have traditionally focused on challenging as the appropriate response to an unentitled claim in an assertion-based autonomous discursive practice (ADP). In this paper I argue that purportedly unentitled claiming is likely to be far more prevalent than we might think in such…

Minding Our Epistemic Business Recently, there has been a lot of theorizing about distinctively epistemic blame. This raises a question: why are the purely epistemic failings of others our business, such that we have standing to blame them? Cameron Boult provides an answer: given how thoroughly epistemically interdependent we are, our epistemic failures let others…

Abstract:聽What are the functions of the predicate 鈥榠s true鈥� or the noun 鈥榯ruth鈥�? Descriptivists assume that the predicate serves to describe a property, which propositions possess if they correspond to the right sort of facts in the world. Pragmatists and deflationists have suggested instead that the truth predicate plays useful roles in encouraging debate and…

In recent years, feminist philosophy has become increasingly mainstream, present and even sought after in many philosophy departments. But this is a recent development, and still an unevenly distributed one. There are still many philosophers, and even many departments, who view feminist philosophy with suspicion, considering it to be 鈥渘ot really philosophy鈥�. This discussion will… |
