SUMMARY:FPST Seminar – Viviane Fairbank (St. Andrews and Stirling) (online)
DESCRIPTION:Title: Some Thoughts on Victimhood and Feminism \nAbstract: In her book Conflict Is Not Abuse (2016)\, Sarah Schulman argues that\, in many domains of public and private life\, false accusations of harm allow (groups of) people to conflate “conflict\,” which is quotidian\, and “abuse\,” which is more problematic but infrequent. The general tendency to mis-identify difficult situations as instances of “abuse” leads to an inability to mediate social problems\, and thus prevents the realization of progressive politics. This\, she argues\, is a reason for socially-minded feminists and activists to reconsider their relationship to so-called victimhood culture. \nI understand Schulman’s book as a distinctive contribution to the genre of “anti-victimhood” literature that has recently gained prominence\, including among some feminist (and many other anti-feminist) scholars. In this talk\, I argue that Schulman’s arguments rely on assumptions about the nature of abuse and victimhood that deserve to be made explicit—notably\, the assumptions that (1) there is always a fact of the matter about who\, in any one situation\, is the victim\, and (2) that this fact is always available to be uncovered by rational agents. I argue that these assumptions do not stand up to empirical or philosophical scrutiny. Feminist philosophers should consequently find ways of thinking about victimhood that allow us to learn from the best version of Schulman’s ideas while nevertheless rejecting such assumptions.

SUMMARY:Metaphysics and Logic Seminar: Shawn Simpson (University of Pittsburgh)
DESCRIPTION:Title: ‘Logic and Inference in the Sender-Receiver Model’ \nAbstract: Logic\, inference\, language – somehow these are all connected. But how? One of David Lewis’s goals in his book Convention (1969) was to answer this question. There\, he presented what is now known as the sender-receiver model of communication\, and he revealed how conventionally meaningful communication might come about. Many who held a conventionalist theory of meaning\, however\, also supported a conventionalist theory of logic. In this talk\, I’ll investigate the nature of logic and inference from the point of view of the new model. The first part of the talk will introduce the model and some of its details. The second part will be a survey of work on logic that’s been done with the model so far. The third part of the talk will look at a new signaling game that involves agents following rules of a non-classical logic. I’ll finish with a discussion of the implications of this way of looking at logic and related issues and ideas for future lines of research.

SUMMARY:Epistemology Seminar: Matt McGrath (Washington University in St Louis)
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Matt McGrath (Washington University in St Louis) \nShould have Known and Epistemically Appropriate Belief\nSometimes people don’t know things they should have known. For instance\, cardiologists should know about recent major developments that bear on their practice; if they don’t know\, they should have. Can what a person should have known matter to what they’re epistemically appropriate to believe? Call the view that it can “should-have-known impurism.” If the cardiologist believes the usual treatment for a certain type of heart disease is best but should have known that an alternative treatment outperformed it in a recent large study\, it seems the cardiologist isn’t believing as she should. In this paper\, I dig into the reasoning behind or suggested by intuitions like this. Once we locate this reasoning\, we can probe its structure\, assess its quality\, and explore variations of it\, along with its relation to intuitions on the opposing “purist” side. In the end\, I argue that we can capture what the impurist gets right without accepting impurism. This is important because\, as I argue\, impurism faces serious problems.
