SUMMARY:Minorities and Philosophy (MAP) Colloquium: Against Philosophy\, Against Inquiry
DESCRIPTION:April 28th\, 2023 | 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM PT\nKaplan Hall 193 (and Zoom)\nHosted by Minorities and Philosophy (MAP) at UCLA\nZoom link: https://ucla.zoom.us/j/94960209231?pwd=Q3lLbnRzNXZPRkgxZ3FnOFFEbHVEZz09\n  \nJoin us on April 28th\, 2023 for a colloquium with Dr. Johnathan Flowers\, California State University\, Northridge. The talk will take place in Kaplan Hall Room 193 from 4:00PM – 6:00PM with a reception to follow. \n  \nRSVP HERE\n  \nNote: ASL interpreters will be available for the duration of the talk. \n  \nAgainst Philosophy\, Against Inquiry\n  \nThis talk will position the current practice of inquiry in philosophy\, colloquially described as “just asking questions\,” as enabling the maintenance of structures of oppression through the ways in which it refuses to grapple with the social\, political\, and cultural realities from which it emerges. This failure allows for the laundering of ableism and transphobia through scholarship that aims to “just ask questions” not just about the nature of gender identity and disability\, but about the very humanity of trans and disabled persons. Finally\, this talk will describe how the conflation of “just asking questions” with contemporary practices of inquiry in philosophy also serve to position objections to this practice of inquiry as “anti-philosophy\,” or opposed to the very nature of philosophy and academia itself. \n  \nJohnathan Flowers is an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at California State University\, Northridge. Flowers’s research areas include African American intellectual history\, Japanese Aesthetics\, American Pragmatism\, Philosophy of Disability\, and Philosophy of Technology. Flowers also works in the areas of Science and Technology Studies and Comics Studies\, where he applies insights from American Pragmatism\, Philosophy of Race\, and Disability Studies to current issues in human/computer interaction\, artificial intelligence and machine learning\, and representations of identity in popular culture. His book\, Mono no Aware and Gender as Affect in Japanese Aesthetics and American Pragmatism\, is due out in April. \n  \nRSVP HERE\n  \n  \n  \n[gravityform id=”32″ title=”true”]

SUMMARY:2022-23 Colloquium: The Reasons We Cannot Share
DESCRIPTION:April 21\, 2023 | 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM PT\nRoyce Hall 243 (and Zoom)\nZoom link: https://ucla.zoom.us/j/98234276234?pwd=ZkpiMFNCSjFvSVNoK1FpWFBJWjkzQT09\n  \nJoin us on April 21\, 2023 for a colloquium with Kyla Ebels Duggan\, Northwestern University. The talk will take place in Royce Hall Room 243 from 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM with a reception on the 3rd floor Royce Patio to follow. \n  \nRSVP HERE\n  \nThe Reasons We Cannot Share\n  \nAccording to political liberals\, a pluralist society should leave each person free to pursue their own conception of the good\, but individuals should bracket these values when engaging in political reasoning with one another.  When reasoning about the basic institutions and fundamental laws that govern the society\, each person should appeal only to so-called public reasons.  Public reasons are considerations that everyone (or at least all reasonable people) can see as reasons\, reasons that we can all share. \n  \nIn the first several sections of the paper\, I explore the ways in which we can and cannot give one another reasons and share reasons that we have.  I compare and contrast the possibilities with respect to reasons for believing\, reasons for valuing\, and reasons for acting.  I then use these distinctions to support the claim that the liberal ideal for relating to others does not require\, and in fact cannot be realized by\, limiting our political reasoning to appeals to shared reasons.  Instead\, I’ll suggest\, it requires regarding others as giving us new reasons to act by valuing and choosing what they do.  When I regard you this way\, I act on reasons that are necessarily different from those on which you act—reasons that we cannot share. \n  \nKyla Ebels-Duggan is Professor of Philosophy at Northwestern University.  She specializes in moral and political philosophy and their history\, working in a broadly Kantian tradition. Her work has appeared in Ethics\, The Philosophical Quarterly\, Philosophical Studies and Philosophers’ Imprint.  She is completing a book on valuing attitudes and starting a book on Iris Murdoch’s moral philosophy. \n  \n\nRSVP HERE

SUMMARY:2022-23 Colloquium: Strong Determinism
DESCRIPTION:March 17\, 2023 | 4:00PM – 6:00PM\nDodd 121\n  \nJoin us on March 17th\, 2023 for a colloquium with Eddy Keming Chen\, UC San Diego. The talk will take place in Dodd 121 from 4:00PM – 6:00PM with a reception to follow. \n  \nRSVP HERE\n  \n  \nA strongly deterministic theory of physics is one that permits exactly one possible history of the universe. In the words of Penrose (1989)\, “it is not just a matter of the future being determined by the past; the entire history of the universe is fixed\, according to some precise mathematical scheme\, for all time.” Such an extraordinary feature may appear unattainable in any realistic theory of physics. In this talk\, I show how it can be achieved in a universe like ours. First\, I propose a definition of strong determinism and explain how it differs from standard determinism and super-determinism. Next\, I discuss its attractions\, implications\, and some toy examples. The possibility of strong determinism has interesting consequences for explanation\, causation\, prediction\, and modality. Finally\, I show that Everettian quantum mechanics\, with a new version of the Past Hypothesis\, provides an easy route to strong determinism. On the new theory that I call the Everettian Wentaculus\, the quantum state of the multiverse is a fundamental mixed state with exactly one possible history. As a consequence of physical laws\, the history of the multiverse could not have been different. \nYou are encouraged but not required to read the preprint before attending the talk: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2203.02886.pdf \n  \n​Eddy Keming Chen is an assistant professor in philosophy at the University of California\, San Diego (UCSD). He works at the intersection of philosophy of physics\, philosophy of science\, and metaphysics. He also has interests in philosophy of mind\, decision theory\, formal epistemology\, philosophy of mathematics\, philosophy of religion\, and Chinese philosophy. He is an associate editor of the journal Foundations of Physics\, a fellow of the John Bell Institute for the Foundations of Physics\, an affiliated faculty member of the UCSD Chinese studies program\, and a member of the interdisciplinary project “Life on the Edge.” He has written about time’s arrow\, laws of nature\, quantum ontology\, physical space\, scientific explanations\, infinitary decision theory\, and temporal self-location. In several recent papers\, he has been developing a new account of time’s arrow in a quantum universe\, called the “Wentaculus.” One of these papers\, published in the British Journal for the Philosophy of Science\, was awarded the Popper Prize for “ambitious\, novel contribution to major issues in the foundations of physics” and judged to be the best paper in its 2021 volume. His work on the vagueness of physical laws has been published in The Philosophical Review and featured as a cover story in New Scientist. One of his side interests is using films to popularize philosophical and scientific ideas. Currently\, he is co-writing a screenplay about a time-travel romance. \n  \nRSVP HERE\n

SUMMARY:2022-23 Colloquium: Being Called
DESCRIPTION:March 10\, 2023 | 4:00PM – 6:00PM\nDodd 121\n  \nJoin us on March 10th\, 2023 for a colloquium with Una Stojnić\, Princeton University. The talk will take place in Dodd 121 from 4:00PM – 6:00PM with a reception in Dodd 399 to follow. \n  \nRSVP HERE\n  \n  \nIn the context of attempting to explain predicative uses of names—most contemporary theorists\, post Naming and Necessity—whether Millians or Descriptivists—invoke the relation of being called; ‘There are two Annas in my class’ semantically expresses or pragmatically conveys that there are two individuals called ‘Anna’ (or alternatively\, two individuals called Anna) in my class.  What has gone unnoticed is that invoking this relation incurs metaphysical commitments about name individuation that are staggering\, requiring positing indefinitely many ambiguous lexical items\, that are unlike any familiar type of lexical items. \n  \nUna Stojnić is an assistant professor of philosophy at the Department of Philosophy at Princeton University. Prior to joining Princeton\, she was an assistant professor of philosophy at the Department of Philosophy at Columbia University\, which she joined after receiving her PhD in Philosophy and Certificate in Cognitive Science from Rutgers University. She was also a Bersoff assistant professor/faculty fellow in Philosophy at NYU and a research fellow in philosophy at the School of Philosophy at ANU. Una’s main research focus is on the philosophical\, linguistic\, and psychological aspects of human communication and linguistic capacities. She also works in philosophical logic and its intersection with natural languages. \n  \nRSVP HERE\n

SUMMARY:2022-23 Colloquium: Examining Social Norms in Animal Cultures
DESCRIPTION:March 3\, 2023 | 4:00PM – 6:00PM\nDodd 121\n  \nJoin us on March 3rd\, 2023 for a colloquium with Kristin Andrews\, York University. The talk will take place in Dodd 121 from 4:00PM – 6:00PM with a reception on the Shostak Terrace (in front of Murphy Hall) to follow. \n  \nRSVP HERE\n  \n\nSocial norms—rules governing which behaviors are deemed appropriate or inappropriate within a given community—are typically taken to be uniquely human. Recently\, this position has been challenged. The view that norms are human unique stems from commitments regarding the psychological capacities required for having them\, and skepticism that animals possess these prerequisites. However\, among norm cognition researchers there is little agreement about the cognitive architecture that underpins social norms in humans. To make progress on the question\, there needs to be a point of agreement–an operationalized account of social norms. Drawing on Westra and Andrews’ (2022) account of a normative regularity–a socially maintained pattern of behavioral conformity within a community–I present three potential cases in primates and discuss the sort of evidence that would be needed to conclude that they qualify as normative regularities. I consider two objections: that social norms involve following rules with deontic content (and animals don’t do that)\, and that having social norms requires punishing non-compliant actors (and animals don’t do that). I conclude with some practical and theoretical implications. \n  \nKristin Andrews is York Research Chair in Animal Minds and Professor of Philosophy at York University\, and she was elected to the College of the Royal Society of Canada in 2015. Her research is at the intersection of philosophy\, social cognition\, moral cognition\, and animal cognition. She is the author of several books\, including most recently How to Study Animal Minds (Cambridge 2020)—an argument for rethinking methods in comparative psychology; and The Animal Mind second edition (Routledge 2020) – a survey of how empirical work on animal minds can help to inform debates in the philosophy of mind.  In recent years\, she has contributed to policy discussions of the status of great apes in US law and digital research infrastructure for animal behavior in Canada. Andrews serves on the Board of Directors for The Borneo Orangutan Society Canada\, which has the mission to promote conservation of orangutans and their habitat and to educate the public. \n  \nRSVP HERE\n

SUMMARY:Kepler and Descartes on Nature and Its Representation
DESCRIPTION:February 27\, 2023 | 11:30AM – 2:00PM\nRoyce 306\n  \nJoin us on Monday\, February 27\, 2023 for lunch and a lecture by Brian Baigrie\, University of Toronto. \nSandwiches will be served at 11:30AM and the talk will begin at 12:00PM. \n  \nRSVP below to save your spot!\n  \nIf you can’t make it to the talk in person\, here is the link to join remotely: https://ucla.zoom.us/j/93382136321?pwd=OWh0bFVJcWQzUkRyQXl3SGpxWFJYZz09 \n  \n\nIn his Ad Vitellionem paralipomena (Additions to Witelo\, 1604)\, Johannes Kepler advanced the remarkable thesis that the act of seeing involves the painting of an inverted picture on the retina\, comparable to the picture that appears on the back of the camera obscura. Kepler’s discovery of the retinal image has been well-documented by historians of the science of optics\, but its impact during the 17th century on the emergence of the mechanical philosophy and a growing recognition of the need for a novel of framework to conceptualize the relationship between nature and its representation is less well-known. This talk will present the central elements of Kepler’s new theory of vision in an attempt to shed light on aspects of its influence on the 17th century twin revolutions in science and philosophy. \n  \nBrian Baigrie is Director of Graduate Studies and Associate Professor at The Institute for the History & Philosophy of Science & Technology\, and cross-appointed to the Institute for Health Policy\, Management & Evaluation (Faculty of Medicine) at the University of Toronto.   His ongoing research (both historical and philosophical) is focussed on evidential reasoning. \n  \n[gravityform id=”58″ title=”true”]

SUMMARY:2022-23 Colloquium: Spinoza on truth
DESCRIPTION:February 24\, 2023 | 4:00PM – 6:00PM\nDodd 121\n  \nJoin us on February 24\, 2023 for a colloquium with Karolina Hübner\, Cornell University. The talk will take place in Dodd 121 from 4:00PM – 6:00PM with a reception in Dodd 399 to follow. \nRSVP HERE\n  \n\nSurprisingly little has been written about Spinoza’s theory of truth\, and there is no general consensus about how he should be understood. After a period during which he was most often portrayed as a coherence theorist\, today he is usually thought to advance a correspondence theory of truth. In this talk I propose a new account of how Spinoza understands the nature of truth – one that makes a more unified and comprehensive sense  of Spinoza’s doctrines and texts. More specifically\, I propose that Spinoza endorses a version of the identity theory of truth. Very roughly\, on identity theories\, the nature of truth consists in the identity of the truthbearer with the truthmaker. I argue that Spinoza holds an identity conception of truth insofar as\, on his view\, true “ideas” are identical with the “things” they are about. More precisely\, a true Spinozistic idea of a thing is that thing itself\, albeit existing in a distinct – purely mental – manner. This conception of truth\, I show\, grows directly out of Spinoza’s general theory of representation – his theory of what it is for any idea to be about or of something in the first place. On my reading\, Spinoza’s theory of truth also turns out to be inseparable from certain ontological commitments – in particular\, a commitment to a pluralism of ways of having being. Arguably\, then\, the identity conception of truth stands or falls with much of the rest of Spinoza’s metaphysical and epistemological edifice. \n  \nKarolina Hübner is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the Sage School of Philosophy\, Cornell University. Her work on the metaphysics\, epistemology\, and philosophy of mind in the early modern period has appeared in such journals as Philosophy and Phenomenological Research\, the Philosophical Quarterly\, the Journal of the History of Philosophy and Philosophers’ Imprint. Until 2019\, she was Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Toronto. Her 2022 article in the Journal of the History of Philosophy\, “Representation and Mind-Body Identity in Spinoza’s Philosophy\,” is the winner of the JHP’s prize for the best article of 2022. She is the co-editor of the forthcoming Spinoza Cambridge Lexicon\, and the editor of Human (Oxford Philosophical Concepts series). She is currently working on a monograph on Spinoza’s metaphysics of thought. \nRSVP HERE\n
