SUMMARY:Metaphysics & Logic Seminar Dr. Ole Hjortland: Logical Pluralism Without Collapse
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: I will present a new counterexample to the Principle of the Identity of Indiscernibles in the form of a world allowing for incompatible time-lines (or histories). The toy-universe I will be working with will be interpreted according to the Branching Space-Time Theory\, presented for the first time in Belnap (1992). In this sense\, I aim to show that Belnap’s Theory\, when interpreted as a strong metaphysical theory of indeterminism\, admits the construction of scenarios contravening PII. The counterexample I will be presenting will be tested against the three most famous lines of defence of the Principle\, as presented in Hawley (2009): the identity defence\, the discerning defence\, and the summing defence. It will be shown that\, unlike other alleged counterexamples to PII\, it proves successful against all these lines of defence.

SUMMARY:Language and Mind Seminar: L&M Discussion of Derek Ball’s “Definition and Dispute”
DESCRIPTION:During the next three weeks\, we will discuss material from Derek Ball’s book manuscript. \nAbstract: These are two introductory chapters from a book manuscript I’m working on\, entitled Definition and Dispute.  The first chapter introduces some main themes of the book\, and the second develops the leading idea: that the best way of making sense of a wide range of disputes\, including many philosophical disputes\, is to adopt a view on which the meanings of our words (and the contents of our thoughts) are determined in the course of inquiry\, but without change of meaning\, so that our views at the end of an inquiry play a role in determining what we meant all along.  Chapter 2 defends the view by criticising a prominent alternative — the idea that such disputes are matters of “metalinguistic negotiation” — and developing a view of definition that makes sense of what is at issue in these disputes and how we argue. \n  \nThe seminar will happen in Zoom. If you want to join this session\, please e-mail me at si24@.

SUMMARY:Conceptual Engineering Seminar | Gillian Russell (UNC Chapel Hill/58�Թ�): “On a proposed counter-example to Hume’s Law based on Ought Implies Can”
DESCRIPTION:Abstract. — This paper looks at a potential counter-example to Hume’s Law based on the principle that Ought implies Can and especially evaluates (and rejects) a conventionalist view according to which there are oughts that imply can\, and oughts that don’t\, and this makes the question of whether or not Ought implies Can essentially conventional and up to us to decide as we like. \n

SUMMARY:Right Workshop: Rights and Harms – Postponed to Spring 2021
DESCRIPTION:2nd Annual Rights Workshop: Rights and Harm \n4th-5th June 2020\, University of 58�Թ�. \nOrganisers: Joseph Bowen (University of 58�Թ� and University of Stirling)\, Samuel Dishaw (Harvard University)\, and Daniel Muñoz (Monash University). \nIn May 2019\, the first annual Rights Workshop was held at MIT\, featuring papers by Frances Kamm\, Julia Driver\, Julia Markovits\, and Renee Jorgensen Bolinger. The was topic: “Rights and Supererogation.”  On 4th-5th June 2020\, the 2nd Rights Workshop will be held at the University of 58�Թ� on “Rights and Harm.” \nIn the last decade\, there has been an explosion of work on rights and duties. Equally explosive has been the literature on the metaphysics of harm and defensive harming. Yet\, these literatures on harm have not linked up with discussion of rights in a particularly explicit way. The Rights Workshop would be a chance for ethicists working on these topics to put their heads together\, share comments\, and make progress on an exciting and flourishing area of research. \nAuthors: Nicolas Cornell (Michigan)\, Helen Frowe (Stockholm)\, Kerah Gordon-Solmon (Queens\, Canada)\, Thomas Sinclair (Oxford)\, Fiona Woollard (Southampton). Respondents: Lisa Bastian (58�Թ� and Stirling)\, Rowan Cruft (Stirling)\, Romy Eskens (Stockholm)\, Clayton Littlejon (Kings)\, and Kieran Oberman (Edinburgh). \nThe format of the workshop is pre-read\, with papers being made available a few weeks before the workshop. Each session will begin with a critical response to one of the papers\, followed by a brief reply from the author\, and then Q&A. The schedule of the workshop will be released closer to the date\, but the Workshop will begin around 10 am on Thursday 4th June and end around 1pm on Friday 5th June. Childcare facilities will be provided (please get in touch as early as possible). \nFor financial support\, we would like to thank 58�Թ�’s Centre for Ethics\, Philosophy and Public Affairs\, Society for Applied Philosophy\, and Scots Philosophical Association. \nAttendance is free\, but we ask that you let us know by emailing us at: sdishaw@g.harvard.edu. \n

SUMMARY:Metaphysics & Logic Seminar: Aybüke Özgün\, Francesco Berto\, and Aaron Cotnoir: Title: Topic-Sensitivity\, Mereology\, Topology
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The insight behind TSIM theory is that we should take at face value the view of belief\, knowledge\, (cognitive) information\, but also of other notions less explored in formal logic\, like imagination and mental simulation\, as (propositional) representational mental states bearing intentionality\, that is\, being about states of affairs\, issues\, situations\, or circumstances which make for their contents. I will generically call these things topics\, and provide a simple formal mereology for them. The semantics for our TSIMs will be given in a kind of conditional logic framework\, with an added mereology of topics.

SUMMARY:Knox Lecture 2020 – John Haldane (Baylor/University of 58�Թ�)
DESCRIPTION:CEPPA is pleased to present the 2020 Sir Malcolm Knox Memorial Lecture:\nJohn Haldane FRSA\, FRSE\nJ. Newton Rayzor Sr Distinguished Professor of Philosophy\, Baylor University \nEmeritus Professor of Moral Philosophy\, University of St. Andrews \nSenior Fellow\, CEPPA \nVisiting Professor\, Jubilee Centre for Character and Virtues\, University of Birmingham \n“Philosophy and Public Affairs in Historical Perspective’’\nwith introductory remarks by Professor Sally Mapstone FRSE\, Principal and Vice-Chancellor of the University of St. Andrews\n3:00 p.m. \nLive webcast on Microsoft Teams \nOpen to all; no invitation needed.  Click here to join the webcast. \n  \nAbstract: \nThe expression ‘Philosophy and Public Affairs’ like ‘Applied Philosophy’ was coined in the early 1970s to reflect a growing interest among professional philosophers in engaging practical and policy issues. That interest was the product of developments within philosophy but also of social events\, especially ones relating to personal morality\, civil rights\, foreign policy\, and warfare. CEPPA\, originally titled the ‘Centre for Philosophy and Public Affairs’ was inspired in its conception by initiatives in the US and sought to bring together philosophy and practice. The Knox lecture was an important focus of this\, and having been involved with the Centre from the outset and directed it for most of its history\, and engaged with most of the lecturers including Dworkin\, MacIntyre\, Putnam\, Rawls\, Rorty\, Skinner\, Taylor\, Warnock\, and Williams\, I will begin with a brief review of its aims and some of these contributions noting the contrast between a priori argument and historically situated reflection. This will lead to an analysis of the relation of thought to history involving ‘three degrees of historical involvement’. From that I will turn to look at the rise of casuistry in medieval thought\, giving some illustrations of enduring ‘discoveries’ about norms for action\, and then draw upon a specific concern of Aquinas about the virtues that should govern disputation bringing these to the contemporary concern with contention and disagreement\, both as a matter of theory (giving rise to the idea of ‘public reason’) and practice. These historical reflections pose a question about the nature and future of liberalism. \nTo see Professor Haldane’s recent CEPPA Chat\, click here.

SUMMARY:Conceptual Engineering Seminar | Elizabeth Cantalamessa (Miami): “Art as conceptual engineering”
DESCRIPTION:Abstract. — In this talk I argue that our engagement in debates about art can be fruitfully understood along the same lines as debates in conceptual engineering. Proposals in conceptual engineering are not to be evaluated on the basis of their ability to track empirical essences but on the basis of a concept’s epistemic\, pragmatic\, or political merits. In the same way\, we should view membership in the category ‘work of art’ as well as subcategories such as ‘folk art’ and ‘sculpture’ not as a fact to be discovered but a decision to be made. I flesh out this core idea by describing a normativist account of aesthetic terms\, according to which our terms do not function to “pick out” properties in the world but enable speakers to convey\, endorse\, and negotiate semantic and behavioral norms. I conclude by showing how this parallel understanding of art and conceptual engineering sheds light on more general issues for conceptual engineers\, such as the role of power in the legitimization of new concepts and philosophical questions.

DESCRIPTION:Recent philosophy has paid considerable attention to the way our biases are liable to encroach upon our cognitive lives\, diminishing our capacity to know and unjustly denigrating the knowledge of others (e.g.\, Fricker 2007). The extent of the bias\, and the range of domains to which it applies\, has struck some as so great as to license talk of a new form of skepticism (Saul 2013). I argue that these depressing consequences are real and\, in some ways\, even more intractable than has previously been recognized. For the difficulties we face in this domain are fueled not only by illicit biases but by various other sorts of entrenched cognitive attitudes we bear toward others\, whether or not we judge them to be our peers. Inasmuch as the epistemic standing of this broader set of attitudes is itself quite dubious\, the problem of epistemic injustice turns out to be just one special case – albeit of a particularly nasty kind – from a broader domain of cases where the collaborative character of knowledge clashes with tendencies that make collaboration difficult. This makes the threat of skepticism all the greater\, and at the same time makes it harder to see what path of escape there might be. \n

SUMMARY:Metaphysics & Logic Seminar Frederick Andersen Title: An Argument Against Justification Holism in the Epistemology of Logic
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: E-sentences (entailment-sentences) are metalinguistic sentences like [A –> B\, A /= B]\, [/= ¬(A & ¬A)]\, and [(A & ¬A) /= B]. This type of sentences is found at the heart of the epistemology of logic as their truth-values tell us what follows from what. Justification holism says that beliefs regarding E-sentences can only be justified in the context of a logical theory\, e.g. classical\, intuitionistic\, paraconsistent etc. Thus\, beliefs concerning E-sentences cannot be atomistically justified as isolated claims about logical consequence\, independently of theory choice. At present there is a developing interest in and endorsement of justification holism due to the revival of a broadly abductivist approach to the epistemology of logic. This paper presents an argument against holism by proving the existence of a foundational E-sentence which is justified independently of theory choice\, i.e. a justificational fixpoint of deductive entailment.
