  • To the End: Exposing the Absolute
    Filozofski vestnik | Volume XLI | Number 2 | 2020 | 311–340 | doi: 10.3986/fv.41.2.12 Frank Ruda* To the End: Exposing the Absolute “Toute infinité requiert une errance.”1 “The task is indeed to demonstrate what the absolute is. But this demonstration cannot be either a determining or an external reflection by virtue of which determinations of the absolute would result, but is rather the exposition of the absolute.”2 “Notez que je suis absolument immanentiste.”3 Introduction The Immanence of Truths is the vineyard in which all the labour of the reader of the first two Being and Event volumes finally, and one might dare to say, ab- solutely pays off. And – as in the famous Jesus parable – those who start with the last volume will receive just as much as those who started years and years ago. Everyone will have received the same currency, notably orientation – and especially a reader of Badiou’s last systematic volume is enabled to see what has any real value – and this means “absolute value.”4 For this reason alone, time does not matter much for the currency that the absolute provides us, as it is that “which in time exceeds time.”5 Yet, the peculiar place where this absolute value 311 system is formulated is difficult to locate. It is close by,6 yet and at the same time it does not exist in any standard sense of the term. The place of the absolute is 1 Alain Badiou, L’Immanence des vérités.

  • Robert Brandom Interview in January 1999 Robert Brandom Has Been Invited to Give a Paper and a Seminar at the University Of
    Robert Brandom Interview In January 1999 Robert Brandom has been invited to give a paper and a seminar at the University of Genoa. In that occasion we decided to have a short interview on general problems about his philosophy. The interview was initially supposed to be for general public; however, given the relevance of the topics discussed for epistemology, we decided eventually to publish it on Epistemologia. <http://www.dif.unige.it/epi/review.htm> Here you may find the original text of the interview. Carlo Penco ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q: Many people wonder how much you have taken from your former teacher, Richard Rorty, and how much you have gone in a different direction. Which are the main difference from your philosophy and his? A: I have taken from Rorty the normative pragmatist insight that all matters of authority and responsibility are ultimately matters of social practice, and never matters of ontology (that is, never just a matter of how things in fact are in the nonhuman world). Rorty draws from this sort of pragmatism some very radical conclusions: just as we should not look to ground our moral judgments in the nonhuman authority of a god, so we should not look to ground our empirical judgments in the nonhuman authority of an external world. For him, all there is to bind us is whatever is required for us stably to agree with one another and cooperate. In my book Making It Explicit, I am concerned (among other things) to describe the special structure of social practices that consist in our granting a kind of authority over the correctness of our thinking to the things we are (thereby) thinking about.

Doy también algunas indicaciones sobre los vínculos entre el interés de Dummett por la historia de los juegos de cartas y algunos aspectos de su transfondo filosófico. Dado que no soy un experto en juegos de cartas, este artículo es sobre todo un recono- cimiento personal a una parte de la obra de Dummett a la que los filósofos han presta- do generalmente poca atención. PALABRAS CLAVE: Dummett, Tarot, principio del contexto, singnificado como uso. ABSTRACT In this paper I give a reconstruction of Dummett’s main arguments concerning the theory of the occult origin of the Tarot, and discuss the reasons behind the success of the Tarot pack – in particular the Major Arcana – in the history of card games. I also provide some indication of the links between Dummett’s interest in the history of card games and aspects of his philosophical background. As I am not an expert on card games, this paper is mainly a personal tribute to a side of Dummett’s work to which philosophers have in general paid little attention.

  • A Methodological Turn in Political Philosophy: Making Political Philosophy More Scientific?1 Tereza Křepelová Masaryk University, Brno
    Public Reason 10 (2) - Public Reason 11 (1): 77-92 © 2019 by Public Reason A Methodological Turn in Political Philosophy: Making Political Philosophy More Scientific?1 Tereza Křepelová Masaryk University, Brno Abstract: The emergence of the first literature concerning the methodology of political philosophy, which we have witnessed over the last decade, indicates a general methodological shift within the discipline. This shift can be interpreted as a sign of the ongoing adjustment of political philosophy to the domain of science that had already begun when analytical political philosophy incorporated from logical positivism the premise of the unity of method of science and philosophy. The urge to have an epistemic source of justification for normative political theories lead analytical political philosophy to the development of various methodological frameworks from among which reflective equilibrium became the most influential one and nowadays it is being considered as the most widely used method in the contemporary political philosophy overall. Reflective equilibrium aims to provide knowledge that falls into the same category as scientific knowledge; however, it can also lead to various normative distortions resulting in the elimination of metaphysics, meta-ethics and religious claims from the normative part of political philosophical theorising. These normative distortions not only can result in epistemically wrong conclusions; above all, they implicitly affirm the normative propositions of political conceptions of liberalism. Hence, the prevalence and uncritical use of reflective equilibrium might narrow the topical scope and undermine the reflective and critical role of the discipline of political philosophy itself. Key words: political science, political philosophy, methodology, analytical political philosophy, logical positivism, political liberalism, epistemic value, epistemic justification, reflective equilibrium, philosophy of science.

    FALL 2018 1. Friday, September 14, 2018 - 3:00pm, BEH 215 "Defending Deflationism from a Forceful Objection." James Woodbridge, Department of Philosophy, University of Nevada Las Vegas This talk presents work done in collaboration with Brad Armour-Garb. We offer a unified picture of deflationism about truth, by explaining the proper way to understand the interrelations between (what Bar-On and Simmons (2007) call) conceptual, linguistic and metaphysical deflationism. I will then present our defense of deflationism against Bar-On and Simmons (2007)'s objection that conceptual deflationism is incompatible with the explanatory role the concept of truth plays in an account of assertion or assertoric illocutionary force. We defend deflationism, rather than just conceptual deflationism, because we take Bar-On and Simmons's stance on their target to involve a mistake. They purport to raise an objection merely to conceptual deflationism, putting the issues involved in metaphysical deflationism and linguistic deflationism to one side. I will explain how that cannot really be done because it mistakenly treats the three categories of deflationary views as running independently and as being at the same theoretical level. As we argue, given the relationships between them, a challenge to conceptual deflationism would flow upward and would amount to a challenge to linguistic deflationism, too, and, thus, to deflationism as a whole. Having defended conceptual deflationism against Bar-On and Simmon's objection, we conclude that deflationism about truth, understood primarily as a view about truth- talk, but with the other theses that brings with it, remains a viable position to endorse. 2.
