On this conception\, something is fundamental just in case it is unexplained relative to a unique privileged relation or a privileged set of relations. Let us say that such a conception of fundamentality shows favouritism\, for it privileges some relations over others in in its characterization. First\, I will argue that fundamentality characterized in terms of a single privileged relation or set of relations cannot do all the work we need fundamentality to do. In particular I will show that we also need an ecumenical conception of fundamentality\, according to which fundamentality is relativized to some metaphysical dependence relation or other.  On this conception\, there is no one privileged relation or set of relations that determines what qualifies as fundamental. Instead\, something qualifies as fundamental relative to any given metaphysical dependence relation just in case it is unexplained relative to that relation. Second\, I will argue that the conception of fundamentality characterized in terms of a privileged relation or set of relations itself relies on the ecumenical conception of fundamentality for its coherence\, and that the ecumenical conception is thus conceptually basic URL:/philevents/event/metaphysics-and-logic-seminar-tba-21/ LOCATION:A virtual seminar by Zoom\, The University\, 58³Ô¹Ï\, KY16 9L\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Metaphysics and Logic group END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20210518T120000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20210518T140000 DTSTAMP:20210518T120720Z CREATED:20210504T101246Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210518T120720Z UID:10001272-1621339200-1621346400@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Language and Mind Seminar DESCRIPTION: URL:/philevents/event/language-and-mind-seminar-31/ LOCATION:A virtual seminar by Zoom\, The University\, 58³Ô¹Ï\, KY16 9L\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Language and Mind Seminar END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20210518T150000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20210518T170000 DTSTAMP:20210518T120721Z CREATED:20200819T113138Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210518T120721Z UID:10001146-1621350000-1621357200@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Conceptual Engineering Seminar | Ãsta (SFSU): “What Are Sex and Gender and What Do We Want Them to Be?†DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT. — We are living in times where there is considerable debate over what sex and gender are and who gets to be of what sex and what gender. These are questions that impact people’s lives greatly\, some more than others. They are metaphysical questions but they also concern what principles we should be guided by when allocating resources\, services\, and protections to people with potentially different needs. There are also methodological questions in the vicinity. I present a conception of sex and gender and their relation and suggest a certain approach to navigating some of the political and material differences. I call that approach “ontic descentâ€. \nZOOM INFO \n\nMeeting ID: 892 5895 0975\nPassword: ACEW21\nInvite link: here URL:/philevents/event/conceptual-engineering-seminar-tba-21/ LOCATION:A virtual seminar by Zoom\, The University\, 58³Ô¹Ï\, KY16 9L\, United Kingdom END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20210519T110000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20210519T123000 DTSTAMP:20200819T154433Z CREATED:20200819T112815Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200819T154433Z UID:10001066-1621422000-1621427400@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Moral Philosophy Reading Group DESCRIPTION: URL:/philevents/event/moral-philosophy-reading-group-26/ ORGANIZER;CN="Ben Sachs":MAILTO:bas7@st-andrews.ac.uk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20210519T160000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20210519T180000 DTSTAMP:20210519T120558Z CREATED:20210504T101247Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210519T120558Z UID:10001273-1621440000-1621447200@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Philosophy & Social Theory Arché Seminar DESCRIPTION: URL:/philevents/event/philosophy-social-theory-arche-seminar-3/ LOCATION:A virtual seminar by Zoom\, The University\, 58³Ô¹Ï\, KY16 9L\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Philosophy & Social Theory Arché Seminar END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20210520T100000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20210520T120000 DTSTAMP:20210520T121903Z CREATED:20200819T113138Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210520T121903Z UID:10001147-1621504800-1621512000@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Super Special Seminar tba DESCRIPTION: URL:/philevents/event/super-special-seminar-tba-25/ LOCATION:A virtual seminar by Zoom\, The University\, 58³Ô¹Ï\, KY16 9L\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Super Special Seminar series END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20210520T160000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20210520T173000 DTSTAMP:20210520T121903Z CREATED:20200819T113138Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210520T121903Z UID:10001148-1621526400-1621531800@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:Epistemology Seminar (joint with CEPPA and FPST): Rima Basu (CMC) “Normative Expectations†DESCRIPTION:Abstract: In supplementing the familiar ways that our interpersonal relationships are morally fraught\, recent work in epistemology on doxastic wronging has highlighted how these relationships can be epistemically fraught as well. However\, in focusing predominantly on beliefs— mental states that arguably constitute a small fraction of our mental lives—these theories have their own theoretical blindspots. In this paper\, I expand the scope of analysis to expectations. Typically\, we notice the failures of expectations when we’re the targets of them: when we let our loved ones down. Key indicators of the presence of normative expectations are feelings of disappointment and betrayal. Contexts in which these feelings manifest most vividly involve parents and their hopes and dreams for our lives. Focusing on these contexts\, I argue that normative expectations play three distinctive roles: a pre- dictive role\, a prescriptive role\, and a proleptic role. Each role\, I conjecture\, comes with its own avenue for moral\, epistemic\, and conceptual failure. Ultimately\, in precisifying the heterogeneous class of attitudes that constitute normative expectations\, I reveal just how expansive the ‘doxastic’ in doxastic wronging ought be.
