In this talk\, I will critically assess this use\, considering what relational value might add to our existing value categories and what problems it might produce for our thinking about the value of the natural world. I first discuss the history of the concept: why early authors considered it a necessary addition to other value concepts and which claims about the natural environment they thought it was particularly well positioned to capture. I next discuss criticisms of the concept: that the need for it was demonstrated by misrepresenting other categories of value and that it distorts our thinking about them. Finally\, I consider what would be a fruitful way forward given these concerns.  While the concept of relational value might be here to stay\, we would do well to think more carefully about both its meaning and its use.  \nLocation: Online on teams and streamed in Edgecliffe G03 URL:/philevents/event/ceppa-talk-in-person-katie-mcshane-colorado-state-university/ LOCATION:Edgecliffe G03 CATEGORIES:CEPPA Talk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260313 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260315 DTSTAMP:20260611T135343 CREATED:20260225T173019Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260225T173042Z UID:10002752-1773360000-1773532799@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Neurodiversity: Diverse Perspectives DESCRIPTION: URL:/philevents/event/neurodiversity-diverse-perspectives/ LOCATION:University of 58Թ\, 58Թ\, Fife\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Workshop END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260316T093000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260316T110000 DTSTAMP:20260611T135343 CREATED:20260228T082315Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260316T085334Z UID:10002758-1773653400-1773658800@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Medieval Logic Seminar: Marsilius of Inghen: Supposition DESCRIPTION: URL:/philevents/event/medieval-logic-seminar-marsilius-of-inghen-supposition/ LOCATION:A virtual seminar by Zoom\, The University\, 58Թ\, KY16 9L\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Medieval Logic Research Group END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260318T160000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260318T173000 DTSTAMP:20260611T135343 CREATED:20260126T190844Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260315T230850Z UID:10002687-1773849600-1773855000@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Moral Philosophy Reading Group (MPRG) DESCRIPTION:Reading:tbc \nLocation: Edgecliffe 104 URL:/philevents/event/moral-philosophy-reading-group-mprg-10/ LOCATION:Edgecliffe 104 CATEGORIES:Reading Group END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260318T160000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260318T173000 DTSTAMP:20260611T135343 CREATED:20260316T230821Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260318T230808Z UID:10002787-1773849600-1773855000@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Moral Philosophy Reading Group (MPRG) DESCRIPTION:Reading: For next week’s MPRG session\, Jenny Mace will lead us in discussing the paper\, “Locating Animals in Political Philosophy”\, by Kymlicka and Donaldson \nLocation: Edgecliffe 104 URL:/philevents/event/moral-philosophy-reading-group-mprg-25/ LOCATION:Edgecliffe 104 CATEGORIES:Reading Group END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260319T153000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260319T180000 DTSTAMP:20260611T135343 CREATED:20260123T185310Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260319T230919Z UID:10002677-1773934200-1773943200@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:The Possibility of Respect book workshop with Remy Debes (University of Memphis) DESCRIPTION:On Thursday 19 March\, under the auspices of CEPPA\, there will be an ‘author meets critics’ event on The Possibility of Respect: Human Dignity and the Ethics of Difference by Remy Debes (Memphis). The book was published by OUP late last year\, and is available via the Library here.\n\n\n\nHere’s an abstract of the book’s argument:\n\nThis book defends a radical new theory of respect against the backdrop of a critical analysis of Western claims to moral progress. Drawing from a wide range of typically marginalized voices both past and present\, and often working through real-life reflections on the experience of disrespect\, it demonstrates the ways that our existing ideas about respect—though inspiring—have misled our efforts to validate the equal human dignity of persons. We grow up being told that respecting persons requires focusing on the ways that all persons are alike in virtue of their equal capacity for agency\, autonomy\, and rights. However\, this book argues that sometimes respecting persons requires de-emphasizing what they have in common with all other persons\, in favor of what is different about them. According to this alternative theory\, it is not a person’s autonomy or rights that matter most\, but their unique\, individual perspective on the world. And the way we respect or recognize this perspective is by trying to understand it. Hence the central thesis of this book: understanding persons sometimes constitutes a way of respecting them. Only if we start thinking about respect in this way\, the book concludes\, can we break free of Western myths of progress that continue to stymie our fundamental moral aspirations.\n\nFeaturing Adam Etinson (58Թ)\, Michael Cholbi (Edinburgh)\, and Emma Gordon (Glasgow) \nLocation: Edgecliffe 104 URL:/philevents/event/book-workshop-with-remy-debes-university-of-memphis/ LOCATION:Edgecliffe 104 CATEGORIES:CEPPA Workshop END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260323T093000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260323T110000 DTSTAMP:20260611T135343 CREATED:20260228T082315Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260323T093907Z UID:10002759-1774258200-1774263600@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Medieval Logic Seminar: Marsilius of Inghen: Supposition DESCRIPTION: URL:/philevents/event/medieval-logic-seminar-marsilius-of-inghen-supposition-2/ LOCATION:A virtual seminar by Zoom\, The University\, 58Թ\, KY16 9L\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Medieval Logic Research Group END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260325T133000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260325T173000 DTSTAMP:20260611T135343 CREATED:20260305T173807Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260325T183815Z UID:10002775-1774445400-1774459800@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:VOICE Symposium 2026\, student led conference.

With this event\, we start a special series highlighting the research being conducted in CEPPA. This time\, we will gather from 16:30 onwards to watch and discuss Office Space (1999) with our own Ben Sachs-Cobbe\, who will introduce us to some of the aspects of his research on the future of work project through this film. You can see the trailer here. As per usual\, there will be drinks and snacks from Luvians. Here is a list of suggested readings and videos. \nTo watch:\n\n\nFor a few years\, Alex and Ben were head of something called The Future of Work and Income Research Network. As part of that\, the two of them\, along with a SASP PhD student\, Deryn Thomas\, produced a series of four animated videos on topics regarding work. Those videos\, along with other videos we produced as part of the Network’s activities\, can all be found on YouTube’s Future of Work and Income page. Ben recommends people scroll down to where it says “animations” and watch those videos\, but of course they might stumble upon other things on that page that catch their interest.\n\n\nTo Read:\n\nKathi Weeks\, The Problem with Work\, Ch. 1. Available online through the library.\nDavid Graeber Bullshit Jobs: A Theory Chs. 5-6.\nJ.E. Penner ‘Aristotle\, Arendt and the Gentleman‘ in The Right to Work (ed. Mantouvalou).
