SUMMARY:CEPPA Talk - Kieran Setiya (Massachusetts Institute of Technology)
DESCRIPTION:Title: ‘What is Morality?’ \nAbstract: In “Modern Moral Philosophy\,” Anscombe argued that the moral vocabulary does not correspond to any concept of Aristotelian ethics\, that it derives from a confused response to the ethics of divine of command\, and that it is literally meaningless. This essay contends that Anscombe was wrong. Morality corresponds to Aristotle’s general sense of “justice\,” which is complete virtue in relation to another. But Anscombe’s question remains: what is it for an action to be morally wrong\, not merely something one should not do? The answer is not that wrongness warrants blame or that an action is wrong when it wrongs another person\, but that an action is morally wrong when it is something one should not do that one has no right to do. In the absence of rights\, Anscombe’s question has no answer. \nMorality-Handout

SUMMARY:CEPPA Talk - Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò (Georgetown University)
DESCRIPTION:Title: ‘Being-in-the-Room: Epistemic Deference and Elite Capture’ \nAbstract: Standpoint epistemology refers to a set of contentions: that knowledge is socially situated\, that marginalized people have some positional advantages in gaining some forms of knowledge\, and that research programs ought to reflect these facts. These seem to me to be entirely unobjectionable\, and indeed to follow from any minimally plausible story about the epistemic consequences of social structure. Yet this theory is often the subject of controversy. I take the problem to be related to the norms of putting the theory into practice\, particularly their reliance on schedules of deference\, and considering the political consequences of this approach (elite capture) and also consequences I take to be morally corrosive. I propose an alternative\, which I call the “constructive” approach to giving standpoint epistemology practical expression\, and try to motivate adopting it.
