SUMMARY:2026 Knox Lecture - Tommie Shelby (Harvard University)
DESCRIPTION:Title: Solidarity\, Politics\, and Intellectual Life\n\n\nAbstract: This lecture will examine what role intellectuals from oppressed groups should play in the struggle for their group’s liberation. It draws on the work of W. E. B. Du Bois and Richard Wright—canonical figures in the Black Radical tradition—to ask whether such intellectuals should subordinate their interest in art and ideas to political resistance against injustice. It also probes a deep tension between the characteristic dispositions of intellectuals and the demands of political solidarity\, and it asks how (if at all) this tension might be resolved or lessened. \n\nLocation: School III

SUMMARY:CEPPA Talk (in-person) - Richard Arneson (UC San Diego)
DESCRIPTION:Title: Democratic Instrumentalism and the Threat of Authoritarianism \nAbstract: The instrumentalism of the title says roughly that the form of governance that would be feasibly best in any circumstances is any one whose establishment and operation would bring about consequences morally no worse than those of any other that might instead be put in place.  I stipulate that the consequences to be assessed exclude any possible noninstrumental value that attaches to all members of the society having an equal vote or equal opportunity for  political influence (EOPI).  This allows\, components of democratic institutions such as protection of  freedom of speech and association do have such value that weighs on the scales.      Authoritarians favoring nondemocracy might be reasonable liberals\, social democrats\, or conservatives.  Does instrumentalism favor democracy always or almost always in our time?  The stipulated exclusion is incorrect if all having equal vote or EOPI really in themselves have noninstrumental value. This exclusion applies only to political power\, not power generally\, but might be supported by a general claim: The distribution of power over others is normatively neutral in itself and matters only insofar as it gives rise to good or bad consequences.  No person has a moral claim to power over others except on the basis\, that person’s having the power will be fair in its effects on those affected.  The discussion surveys relevant arguments advanced by Niko Kolodny\, Daniel Viehoff\, and Jeremy Waldron. \nLocation: Edgecliffe G03 and online on teams
