SUMMARY:Metaphysics Seminar Thomas Randriamahazaka (University of St Andrews)
DESCRIPTION:Title: On Beall and Camrud’s defence of the combinatorial argument for FDE\n\nAbstract: In their 2020 paper “FDE all the way up”\, Beall and Camrud aim to defend a particular combinatorial argument for the paraconsistent and paracomplete logic FDE against a natural objection. The argument\, roughly\, states that\, since logic must consider all possibilities\, it is not enough to have the ‘True’ and the ‘False’ in the correct set of truth-values but there also must be all combinations of these two fundamental truth-values\, namely ‘Both True and False’ and ‘Neither True Nor False’. Including those combinatorial truth-values yields FDE. The objection Beall and Camrud consider consists in the idea that it must be possible to iterate the processus of combining truth-values. The gist of Beall and Camrud’s defence is that iterating the operation of ‘taking combinations of truth-values’ do not change the logic after one gets to FDE.  In this talk\, I argue that their defence fails because the formal definition of the operation of ‘taking combinations of truth-values’ that they use\, namely Priest’s positive plurivalence\, fails to deliver FDE when applied to the two-valued matrix of classical logic. Indeed\, I argue\, one must stay consistent in what notion of ‘taking combinations of truth-values’ one uses throughout the combinatorial argument and the defence against the objection. One can find\, to my knowledge\, two such notions in the literature: Priest’s positive plurivalence and Priest’s general plurivalence. Depending on which one uses\, one find oneself with a combinatorial argument (immune to the natural objection) for Priest’s logic LP or Oller’s logic AL. The conclusion of the talk takes the form of a challenge: to defend the combinatorial argument for FDE against the natural objection\, one must find a notion of ‘taking combinations of truth-values’ which (a) produces the four-valued matrix of FDE when applied to the two-valued matrix of classical logic and (b) always produces FDE as a logic when iterated starting from the four-valued matrix of FDE. The notion used by Beall and Camrud in their paper satisfies (b) but fails to satisfy (a). By contrast\, I put forward in the talk a natural proposal which satisfies (a) but fails to satisfy (b). This leaves me quite skeptical that the challenge can be met and that any such combinatorial argument for FDE can survive the natural objection.

SUMMARY:Feminist Philosophy and Social Theory Seminar: Lara Jost
DESCRIPTION:For this session\, Lara Jost will lead a discussion of the second chapter of Myisha Cherry’s new book ‘The Case for Rage: Why Anger is Essential to Anti-Racist Struggle’. \nTitle: Fitting Fury and Frightful Rage\, Myisha Cherry\nAbstract: Chapter 2 argues that Lordean rage is an appropriate response to racial injustice and is more likely to correctly represent racial injustice than the other variations of rage. The chapter claims that this apt and correct Lordean rage is morally and politically valuable because it not only registers racial injustice but it appreciates justice. Lordean rage says that racial justice is worth having. It also not only marks disvalue\, but it is a way to respond to the value that racial minorities in the United States have. The chapter also explores ways to escape strategic traps set by others to make the outraged doubt their anger and give it up.

SUMMARY:Epistemology Seminar: Corine Besson (Sussex) "Carroll’s Regress\, Guidance and Explicit Representation"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: What is the nature of one’s justification to use a logical principle such as Modus Ponens in reasoning? It is widely agreed amongst epistemologists of logic that such justification cannot be internalist. One key reason offered for this view is that internalist accounts of justification are susceptible to Carroll-style regresses. In this talk\, I examine this claim and argue that internalist accounts of justification are not open to such regresses. I further argue that the sorts of externalist accounts of the justification of logical principles typically put forward as alternatives are inadequate.
