SUMMARY:CEPPA Talk – Kristie Dotson (University of Michigan)
DESCRIPTION:Title: Beyond the Now: Epistemic Oppression and the “Common” Sense of Incarceration \nAbstract: In this presentation\, I narrate an encounter with 2 Black teenagers who attempted to steal my cellphone and the difficulty of insisting on accountability while avoiding the worst parts of the state-run criminal justice system. Ultimately\, I demonstrate that\, at times\, when a situation calls for accountability for a serious wrongdoing in the U.S. one can find oneself trapped in a “now” that has been constructed by 1) ineffective carceral imaginations\, 2) insufficient structural options for accountability\, and 3) inadequate lexicons of permissibility. I conclude by suggesting key questions for exploration in the U.S. carceral state are: what are the communities we want to build with the accountability options on which we rely? How can we make the current “common” sense of incarceration “uncommon?” \nCo-Hosted with ECT and FPST \n

SUMMARY:CEPPA Talk – David Christensen (Brown University)
DESCRIPTION:Title: Epistemic Akrasia: No Apology Required \nAbstract: It is natural to think that rationality imposes some relationship between what a person believes\, and what she believes about what she’s rational to believe. Epistemic akrasia—for example\, believing P while believing that P is not rational to believe in your situation—is often seen as intrinsically irrational. This paper argues otherwise. In certain cases\, akrasia is intuitively rational. Understanding why akratic beliefs in those case are indeed rational provides a deeper explanation how typical akratic beliefs are irrational—an explanation that does not flow from akrasia per se. This understanding also allows us to diagnose where general anti-akratic arguments go wrong. We can then see why even principles designed to allow only moderate akrasia fail\, and also why recognizing the possibility of rational akratic beliefs does not call for finding some other epistemic defect in agents who believe akratically. Believing akratically\, in itself\, is nothing to apologize for.\nCo-Hosted with ECT.

SUMMARY:CEPPA Talk – Stephanie Collins (Monash University)
DESCRIPTION:Title: Legislative Intent: A Rational Unity Account\n(co-authored with David Tan (Deakin University)) \nAbstract: Does the legislature have intentions concerning the effects of legislation? If so\, how can that intent be known by outsiders? Existing theories of legislative intent can be divided into three camps: skepticism\, constructivism\, and realism. This paper begins by outlining problems for existing realist accounts. The paper then offers a new realist theory of legislative intent: the rational unity account. The paper explains how this account avoids the problems with existing versions of realism\, while also capturing the sense in which the legislature is a rational agent with intentions that can be distinguished from the intentions of individual legislators. We explain what evidence outsiders can\, and should\, use when attributing intentions to the legislature. \nCo-Hosted with ECT.
