SUMMARY:CEPPA Talk (online) – Paulina Sliwa (Vienna) & Tom McClelland (Cambridge)
DESCRIPTION:Title: On seeing women as objects: objectification and affordance perception \nLocation: Teams (online only)\, the talk will be streamed from Edgecliffe G03 \nAbstract: Objectification is a central topic in feminist philosophy theorising. But what is it for someone to objectify another person? A common theme is that objectification involves treating and viewing the other person as an object. Thus\, consider the following quotes: \n‘A man\, for example\, who objectifies women will view them and treat them as having a nature which makes them what he desires them to be…’ (Haslanger\, p.73) \n‘The most subtle and deniable way sexualized evaluation is enacted – and arguably the most ubiquitous – is through gaze\, or visual inspection of the body .… when objectified\, women are treated as bodies – and in particular\, as bodies that exist for the use and pleasure of others.’ (Fredrickson and Roberts\, p.175) \nIn a classic paper\, Nussbaum has unpacked the various aspects of “treating someone as an object”. What has received less attention is the role of perception in objectification. It is striking that in describing what objectification involves\, the language of “seeing”\, of “gaze”\, of “looking” is central. Is this purely metaphorical talk? Or is there something literally visual going on? \nOur aim in this paper is to answer this question: can we make sense of  objectification as a phenomenon with a genuinely visual component? We suggest that the notion of affordance perception – the idea that we perceive possibilities for action – allows us to do so. We draw out some consequences for the moral psychology of objectification as well as for the act of looking as a tool of oppression.

SUMMARY:CEPPA Talk (In person) – Joel Joseph (58�Թ�)
DESCRIPTION:Title: Eliminative Harming without Intentions \nLocation: Edgecliffe G03 \nAbstract: Consider the following pair of cases  \nRoughshod. You are driving to the hospital for an emergency life-saving operation. If you do not make it in time\, you will die. However\, Victim is lying in the only road that will get you there in time. Although Victim is not physically obstructing your path\, they are too heavy for you to move aside. You can therefore save yourself only by driving over Victim en route to the hospital\, thereby killing her.  \nObstruction. The case is similar to Roughshod. However\, this time you cannot simply drive over Victim on your way to the hospital. This is because her presence in the road is physically obstructing your path. You can therefore save yourself only by getting out of your car and detonating a bomb next to Victim that will blow her to smithereens\, thereby clearing the road ahead.  \nIt seems impermissible to kill Victim in either case. However\, many find it intuitively plausible that killing Victim in Obstruction is harder to justify killing than it is in Roughshod. The Doctrine of Double Effect (DDE) is the only discussed explanation of the moral difference between these two cases. However\, many non-consequentialists find DDE implausible.  \nIn this paper\, I argue that we can distinguish morally between Roughshod and Obstruction without appealing to DDE. I first argue that DDE does not get to the heart of the intuitive moral difference between Roughshod and Obstruction. I then offer an alternative explanation of the moral difference between Roughshod and Obstruction that is extensionally superior to DDE. Finally\, I argue that endorsing my account over DDE is not only theoretically significant\, but that it also has implications for the morality of abortion that differ importantly from DDE.
