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.

If you want to join this session\, please e-mail me at si24@.

The was topic: “Rights and Supererogation.”  On 4th-5th June 2020\, the 2nd Rights Workshop will be held at the University of 58łÔąĎ 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 (58łÔąĎ 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 58łÔąĎ’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  URL:/philevents/event/right-workshop-rights-and-harms/ CATEGORIES:CEPPA,CEPPA Workshop ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:/philevents/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/CEPPA-gm2QZw.tmp_.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20200604T100000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20200604T120000 DTSTAMP:20200604T234933Z CREATED:20200528T093550Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200604T234933Z UID:10000955-1591264800-1591272000@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Super Special Seminar tba DESCRIPTION: URL:/philevents/event/super-special-seminar-tba/ LOCATION:A virtual seminar by Zoom\, The University\, 58łÔąĎ\, KY16 9L\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Super Special Seminar series END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20200604T130000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20200604T143000 DTSTAMP:20200604T234933Z CREATED:20200528T093550Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200604T234933Z UID:10000956-1591275600-1591281000@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Epistemology Seminar: Jack Lyons (Glasgow): “Two Dogmas of Empirical Justification” DESCRIPTION: URL:/philevents/event/epistemology-seminar-jack-lyons-glasgow-two-dogmas-of-empirical-justification/ LOCATION:A virtual seminar by Zoom\, The University\, 58łÔąĎ\, KY16 9L\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Epistemology Seminar END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20200605T101500 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20200605T114500 DTSTAMP:20200605T232836Z CREATED:20200528T093550Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200605T232836Z UID:10000957-1591352100-1591357500@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Medieval Logic Seminar: John Dumbleton\, Summa Logicae DESCRIPTION: URL:/philevents/event/medieval-logic-seminar-john-dumbleton-summa-logicae/ LOCATION:A virtual seminar by Zoom\, The University\, 58łÔąĎ\, KY16 9L\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Medieval Logic Reading Group END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
