SUMMARY:Conceptual Engineering Seminar | Mona Simion (Glasgow): “Engineering Evidence”
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT. — Evidence matters in philosophy: the concept of evidence is central to both epistemology and the philosophy of science. Outside philosophy\, the concept of evidence is highly employed as well: lawyers\, judges\, historians and scientists\, investigative journalists and reporters\, as well as ordinary folk in the course of everyday life talk and think about evidence a lot. When one compares philosophical accounts of evidence with the way the concept is often employed in non-philosophical contexts\, however\, a puzzle soon emerges. Historically\, in philosophy\, having evidence has been spelled out in terms of being in one state of mind or another. The problem that often arises from this is that we have difficulties diagnosing resistance to evidence: people are often faced with strong evidence for p but refuse to take it up. In everyday talk and thought\, however\, having evidence has little to do with being in a particular state of mind. Rather\, one is said to have evidence for p when one has objects and facts available to them that render p likely. You will not convince any judge that you had no evidence for p just because you were not paying attention to or refusing to accept the facts supporting p lying in plain view. On the other hand\, the non-philosophical account of having evidence seems a bit too agent-insensitive: after all\, we are cognitively limited beings\, there is only so much information we can be expected to pick up from our environments. This paper is an exercise in unification: it proposes to engineer a novel concept of evidence had as available facts that raise the probability of knowledge. This view\, it is argued\, escapes this puzzle\, and has the capacity to play the roles it needs to play both within and outside philosophy. \nZOOM INFO \n\nMeeting ID: 892 5895 0975\nPassword: ACEW21\nInvite link: here

SUMMARY:Epistemology Seminar: Lara Jost “Knowledge: Emotions\, Perception and Rational Agents”
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: In contemporary analytic epistemology\, emotions are usually not considered to be a good justification for an agent’s belief\, in the same way perception\, memory\, reasoning or testimony are\, due to emotions facing issues when it comes to being reliable and sensitive to defeaters. In this talk\, I argue that this problem can be overcome if one reframes what is expected of emotions under rational guidance. Building on Jones (2003)\, I will propose that we need to consider emotions as participating to knowledge acquisition under a conception of epistemic agents as reason trackers rather than reason responders. This will enable me to build a model where the reliability and sensitivity of emotions can be explained through delayed calibration rather than immediate control. In order to strengthen this proposal\, I will highlight how perception is following the same pattern\, while benefiting from a better epistemic reputation than emotions. Finally\, I will discuss how the calibration of emotions is a dual process\, where calibration is influenced by both internal and social monitoring\, which explains why our emotions can offer good justification for belief.

SUMMARY:CEPPA Talk – Jesse Tomalty (University of Bergen)
DESCRIPTION:Title: Discrimination at the Border\n\nAbstract: In selecting among prospective immigrants\, it is widely accepted that states are morally permitted to differentiate on the basis of skill. By contrast\, differentiating among prospective immigrants on the basis of (perceived) traits such as race\, ethnicity\, or religion is widely held to amount to wrongful discrimination. I argue that these views are in tension. This is because the strongest account of why race\, ethnicity\, and religion are not morally acceptable criteria for selecting immigrants also rules out selection based on skill. What all of these criteria have in common is that their application fails to respect the moral equality of prospective immigrants. Given that states are obligated to respect the moral equality of all persons\, I argue that this implies that the set of morally acceptable criteria for selecting immigrants is narrower than many currently accept.
