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:20230921T163000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20230921T180000 DTSTAMP:20260614T233552 CREATED:20230914T145412Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230921T152439Z UID:10001725-1695313800-1695319200@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Book talk: Digital Masquerade: Feminist Rights and Queer Media in China\, Jia Tan DESCRIPTION:The Gender Institute and the Mlitt in Gender Studies (Graduate School of Interdisciplinary studies)\, invites you to the book presentation of Digital Masquerade.  \nJia Tan is a Global Fellow at the University of 58Թ.  \n\nDigital Masquerade offers a trenchant and singular analysis of the convergence of digital media\, feminist and queer culture\, and rights consciousness in China. Jia Tan examines the formation of what she calls “rights feminism\,” or the emergence of rights consciousness in Chinese feminist formations\, as well as queer activism and rights advocacy. Expanding on feminist and queer theory of masquerade\, she develops the notion of “digital masquerade” to theorize the co-constitutive role of digital technology as assemblage and entanglement in the articulation of feminism\, queerness\, and rights. Drawing from interviews with various feminist and queer media practitioners\, participant observation at community events\, and detailed analyses of a variety of media forms such as social media\, electronic journals\, digital filmmaking\, film festivals\, and dating app videos\, Jia Tan captures the feminist\, queer\, and rights articulations that are simultaneously disruptive of and conditioned by state censorship\, technological affordances\, and dominant social norms. \n  \n \n\n\n Jia TAN is Associate Professor of Cultural Studies in the Department of Cultural and Religious Studies at The Chinese University of Hong Kong. She received her doctoral degree in critical studies of cinema and television from the University of Southern California. She is the author of Digital Masquerade: Feminist Rights and Queer Media in China (New York University Press\, 2013). Her research has been funded by Hong Kong Research Grants Council\, Social Science Research Council\, Harold Lloyd Foundation\, and so on. She is on the editorial board of Communication\, Culture\, and Critique as well as Journal of Chinese Cinemas.

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.
