It first considers whether supererogation may sometimes take precedence over positive and negative duties and how this relates to personal costs (including efforts) required to perform one’s duty. It then considers how acquiescence to having large costs imposed on one (even permissibly) can be supererogatory. Finally\, it considers how what are usually duties can become supererogatory and how what is usually supererogatory can become dutiful. The relation between these topics and the trolley problem and the so-called “all or nothing problem” are examined.

One is that the onrushing climate catastrophe renders the modern liberal value of personal autonomy unintelligible as a concept to live by. Originally\, that was the only point I planned to argue for: I would then conclude that because Kant never once predicates autonomy of individuals\, selves\, or persons\, Kant’s practical philosophy is immune to this difficulty and offers a better approach to climate ethics and justice. But – here is the second point – it then struck me how this conclusion only follows if you already accept Kant’s practical philosophy. If instead you think it mere empty formalism\, well\, rising sea levels won’t make it less so. This got me trying to think about how normative disorientation arising from the unintelligibility of ethical concepts can trap us in a particularly dire reflective predicament. I’ll try to outline this predicament\, and say something about how we might get out of it. \n  URL:/philevents/event/ceppa-talk-in-person-simon-hope-stirling/ CATEGORIES:CEPPA Talk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20230928T160000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20230928T173000 DTSTAMP:20260615T061400 CREATED:20230630T202320Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230918T130809Z UID:10001699-1695916800-1695922200@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:CEPPA Talk (in person) – Barry Maguire (Edinburgh) DESCRIPTION:Location: Edgecliffe G03 \nTitle: Two Moralities of Recognition \nAbstract: TBA URL:/philevents/event/ceppa-talk-in-person-barry-maguire-edinburgh/ LOCATION:Edgecliffe G03 CATEGORIES:CEPPA Talk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20230928T160000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20230928T173000 DTSTAMP:20260615T061400 CREATED:20230922T132538Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230928T135737Z UID:10001730-1695916800-1695922200@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:CEPPA TALK (in person) – Carl Mildenberger (Universität Zürich) DESCRIPTION:Location: Edgecliffe G03 \nTitle: The Quest for Additionality \nAbstract: Many people aim to make the world a better place by spending their money in certain ways. The school of “effective altruism” teaches that\, if one donates one’s money wisely\, one can have a positive impact. Currently\, many people want to make us believe that if one invests one’s money wisely\, one will also have a positive impact. I argue that\, for virtually everybody\, this latter promise cannot come true.
