SUMMARY:Metaphysics and Logic Seminar Christopher Masterman
DESCRIPTION:Title: How Serious is Serious Actualism?\n\n\nAbstract: Serious Actualism is a view which many find compelling: it is impossible for an object to exemplify a property and not exist. In this talk\, I aim to do two things. First\, I argue that there are compelling reasons for thinking that there is a property of nonexistence and that it is possibly exemplified. Thus\, Serious Actualism\, as standardly construed\, is false. Second\, I defend a neglected approach to Serious Actualism. I distinguish between a strong and a weak formulation of the view by drawing on the distinction between truth in\, and truth at\, a possible world. I argue that we should endorse only the weak formulation of Serious Actualism. This allows us to accommodate for much of what rings true about Serious Actualism without running into problems posed by properties like the property nonexistence.

SUMMARY:Conceptual Engineering Seminar | Rachel Cooper (Lancaster): “Psychiatric kinds and the DSM: Notes and queries from a conceptual building site”
DESCRIPTION:Abstract. — The DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) is a classification of mental disorders. It is published by the American Psychiatric Association and revised by committees of psychiatrists ever fifteen years or so. This talk considers the DSM as a ‘conceptual building site’. For successful conceptual engineering to be possible we would need to be able to  (i) figure out how concepts might be defective and how they might be improved\, and (ii) bring about conceptual change. In the literature on conceptual engineering\, many seem to assume that (i) is fairly easy\, but that (ii) may be very hard. Through a discussion of the DSM revision process I argue that\, in at least some cases\, bringing about conceptual change is relatively easy\, but that figuring out how concepts might be defective and how they might be improved can be very hard. The overall aim of the talk is to help make discussions of conceptual engineering more concrete by focussing on a real life ‘conceptual building site’. \n\nZoom meeting ID: 857 3025 53 80\nZoom password: ACEW20 (Invite link)

SUMMARY:Metaphysics and Logic Seminar Barbara Vetter
DESCRIPTION:Title: Essence\, Potentiality\, and Modality \nAbstract: According to essentialism\, metaphysical modality is founded in the essences of things\, where the essence of a thing is roughly akin to its real definition. According to potentialism (also known as dispositionalism)\, metaphysical modality is founded in the potentialities of things\, where a potentiality is roughly the generalized notion of a disposition. Essentialism and potentialism have much in common\, but little has been said about their relation to each other. The aim of my talk is to better understand the relations between essence and potentiality\, on the one hand\, and between essentialism and potentialism\, on the other. It is argued\, first\, that essence and potentiality are not duals but interestingly linked by a weaker relation dubbed ‘semi-duality’; second\, that given this weaker relation\, essentialism and potentialism are not natural allies but rather natural competitors; and third\, that the semi-duality of essence and potentiality allows the potentialist to respond to an important explanatory challenge by using essentialist resources without thereby committing to essentialism.

SUMMARY:Language and Mind Seminar | Julia Zakkou (Bielefeld)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: This paper investigates the norm of presupposition\, as one pervasive type of indirect speech act. It argues against the view that sees presuppositions as an indirect counterpart of the direct speech act of assertion and proposes instead that they are much more similar to the direct speech act of assumption. More concretely\, it suggests that the norm that governs presuppositions is not an epistemic or doxastic attitude such as knowledge\, justified belief\, or mere belief; it’s a practical attitude\, most plausibly the attitude of rational acceptance. This view has important ramifications well beyond debates in philosophy of language and linguistics. It affects not only our view of which speech act sequences are fine and which are off; it bears on whether presuppositions can function as testimony\, whether they can be lies\, and whether they are ontologically committal\, thus addressing central topics in epistemology\, ethics\, and metaphysics.

SUMMARY:Conceptual Engineering Seminar | Juliette Kennedy (Helsinki): “On the feasibility of conceptual engineering in logic and (meta)mathematics: A few case studies”
DESCRIPTION:Abstract. — Precisifications of certain informal concepts could be thought of as instances of conceptual engineering: the concept of a Turing machine (human effective computability)\, the notion of a Kripke structure (possibility)\, the Kolmogorov axioms (probability)\, Tarski’s definition of truth in formal languages\, to name just a few. Should we regard the technical notions these formalisms define as engineered concepts? In this talk I will present a critical view of the feasibility of conceptual engineering in logic and foundations of mathematics\, drawing on a few key examples: the concept of “model\,” which emerged slowly and under significant internal pressures; the concept of computability\, and from my own work the concept of formalism independence/formalism freeness. The view taken here is that foundational formalisms such as these are not tracking conceptual change so much as invariant conceptual content. Time permitting\, we venture into the sociology of mathematics as it bears on the control problem. Mathematicians are often resistant to new concepts (especially those coming from foundations). The bar may be set too high for conceptual engineering projects in mathematics if such projects do not deliver on conventional factors such as simplification (the complex number proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra)\, establishing deep connections between mathematical subdisciplines (Hrushovski’s application of model-theoretic concepts to the Mordell-Lang Conjecture)\, the ability to prove new theorems (projective determinacy vis a vis regularity properties of the reals). \n\nZoom meeting ID: 857 3025 53 80\nZoom password: ACEW20 (Invite link)

SUMMARY:CEPPA Talk – Robert Talisse (Vanderbilt University)
DESCRIPTION:Title: ‘The Problem of Polarization’ \nAbstract: “The cure for democracy’s ills is more democracy.” This popular adage is false. Contemporary democracy faces problems that have their source in otherwise laudable forms of political participation. In short\, enactments of democratic citizenship heighten our exposure to polarization\, which in turn erodes our capacities to perform well as citizens. This talk examines the phenomenon of polarization\, identifies the problem that polarization poses to democracy\, and proposes a strategy for addressing that problem. Perhaps surprisingly\, if we aim to nurture our democratic capacities\, we need to sometimes engage together in nonpolitical cooperative activities.

SUMMARY:Metaphysics and Logic Seminar Franz Berto
DESCRIPTION:Title: Indicative Conditionals: Probabilities and Relevance \nAbstract: Adams’ Thesis claims that the acceptability of a simple indicative conditional equals the corresponding conditional probability. The Thesis is widely endorsed\, but arguably false and refuted by empirical research. To fix it\, we submit\, we need a relevance constraint: we accept a simple conditional ‘If ϕ\, then ψ’ to the extent that (i) the conditional probability p(ψ|ϕ) is high\, provided that (ii) ϕ is relevant for ψ. How (i) should work is well-understood. It is (ii) that holds the key to improve our understanding of conditionals. We propose a formal framework giving acceptability and logical closure conditions for simple indicatives: its probabilistic component (i) uses Popper functions; its relevance component (ii) is given via an algebraic structure of topics. We then present the resulting logic. We argue that its (in)validities are both theoretically desirable and in line with empirical results on how people reason with conditionals.

SUMMARY:Conceptual Engineering Seminar | Sanford Goldberg (Northwestern/58�Թ�): “Proposing non-standard concepts in epistemology: de novo construction or conceptual re-engineering?”
DESCRIPTION:Abstract. — Let ‘epistemic concepts’ refer to those concepts which express the standards employed in epistemic assessment.   Such concepts offer an interesting test case for conceptual engineering.  On the one hand\, they seem like they are tailor-made to be constructed de novo\, answering to whichever of the varying interests we might have in epistemic evaluation.  On the other\, charges of “changing the subject” are not unknown in epistemic theorizing\, suggesting that there is a fixed subject-matter we are trying to capture in our concepts and theories.  In this talk I try to motivate the need for some non-standard epistemic concepts\, and then suggest how they might be seen as conceptually re-engineered rather than merely constructed de novo. \n\nZoom meeting ID: 857 3025 53 80\nZoom password: ACEW20 (Invite link)

SUMMARY:CEPPA Talk – Mark Schroeder (University of Southern California)
DESCRIPTION:Title: ‘Conflict\, Discord\, and Strife’ \nAbstract: Given that interpersonal relationships are relationships between persons\, we might hold out hope that a better philosophical understanding of the nature of persons can help us to better understand the structure and dynamics of interpersonal relationships. In this talk I will argue that this thought is correct. In particular\, I will argue that the right kind of philosophical theory about the nature of persons can help us to recognize the possibility of an underappreciated form of silencing that can lead us to misunderstand one another\, explain why these forms of misunderstanding can often be symmetric\, and illustrate how such symmetric forms of misunderstanding can drive and perpetuate good-faith conflicts even between perfectly well-meaning parties.
