  • Analyticity, Balance and Non-Admissibility of in Stoic Logic
    Susanne Bobzien Analyticity, Balance and Roy Dyckhoff Non-admissibility of Cut in Stoic Logic Abstract. This paper shows that, for the Hertz–Gentzen Systems of 1933 (without Thin- ning), extended by a classical rule T 1 (from the Stoics) and using certain axioms (also from the Stoics), all derivations are analytic: every cut formula occurs as a subformula in the cut’s conclusion. Since the Stoic cut rules are instances of Gentzen’s Cut rule of 1933, from this we infer the decidability of the propositional logic of the Stoics. We infer the correctness for this logic of a “relevance criterion” and of two “balance criteria”, and hence (in contrast to one of Gentzen’s 1933 results) that a particular derivable sequent has no derivation that is “normal” in the sense that the first premiss of each cut is cut-free. We also infer that Cut is not admissible in the Stoic system, based on the standard Stoic axioms, the T 1 rule and the instances of Cut with just two antecedent formulae in the first premiss. Keywords: Sequent, Analyticity, Stoic logic, Proof theory, Decidability, Relevance, Balance, Cut-admissibility. Introduction and Overview There is dispute and uncertainty about the exact details of much of the logic of the Stoics. The primary sources are fragmentary and the secondary sources fail to provide a coherent account. We ignore the Stoics’ modal logic and consider only their propositional logic, which may be regarded as a frag- ment of what we now call classical propositional logic. It is a substructural logic and a relevant logic, with that term broadly conceived: the rule of Thinning is neither present nor admissible and an atom-sharing property, as in [11], i.e.

  • 1 Realism V Equilibrism About Philosophy* Daniel Stoljar, ANU 1
    Realism v Equilibrism about Philosophy* Daniel Stoljar, ANU Abstract: According to the realist about philosophy, the goal of philosophy is to come to know the truth about philosophical questions; according to what Helen Beebee calls equilibrism, by contrast, the goal is rather to place one’s commitments in a coherent system. In this paper, I present a critique of equilibrism in the form Beebee defends it, paying particular attention to her suggestion that various meta-philosophical remarks made by David Lewis may be recruited to defend equilibrism. At the end of the paper, I point out that a realist about philosophy may also be a pluralist about philosophical culture, thus undermining one main motivation for equilibrism. 1. Realism about Philosophy What is the goal of philosophy? According to the realist, the goal is to come to know the truth about philosophical questions. Do we have free will? Are morality and rationality objective? Is consciousness a fundamental feature of the world? From a realist point of view, there are truths that answer these questions, and what we are trying to do in philosophy is to come to know these truths. Of course, nobody thinks it’s easy, or at least nobody should. Looking over the history of philosophy, some people (I won’t mention any names) seem to succumb to a kind of triumphalism. Perhaps a bit of logic or physics or psychology, or perhaps just a bit of clear thinking, is all you need to solve once and for all the problems philosophers are interested in. Whether those who apparently hold such views really do is a difficult question.

    BROPHY.FINAL.OC (DO NOT DELETE) 12/18/2013 9:48 AM Book Reviews Did Formalism Never Exist? BEYOND THE FORMALIST-REALIST DIVIDE: THE ROLE OF POLITICS IN JUDGING. By Brian Z. Tamanaha. Princeton, New Jersey: Princeton University Press, 2010. 252 pages. $24.95. Reviewed by Alfred L. Brophy* In Beyond the Formalist-Realist Divide, Brian Tamanaha seeks to rewrite the story of the differences between the age of formalism and the age of legal realism. In essence, Tamanaha thinks there never was an age of formalism. For he sees legal thought even in the Gilded Age of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries—what is commonly known as the age of formalism1—as embracing what he terms “balanced realism.”2 Legal history3 and jurisprudence4 both make important use of that divide, or, to use somewhat less dramatic language, the shift from formalism (known often as classical legal thought) to realism. Moreover, as Tamanaha describes it, recent studies of judicial behavior that model the extent to which judges are formalist—that is, the extent to which they apply the law in some neutral fashion or, conversely, recognize the centrality of politics to * Judge John J.

Cohen, the Chichele Professor of Social and Political Theory at Oxford, first came to international prominence with his impressive 1978 book on Marx's historical materialism,1 a volume which gave birth to "analytical Marxism."'2 Analytical Marxists reformulated, criticized, and tried to salvage central features of Marx's theories of history, ideology, politics, and economics. They did so not only by bringing a welcome argumentative rigor and clarity to the exposition of Marx's ideas, but also by purging Marxist thinking of what we may call its "Hegelian hangover," that is, its (sometimes tacit) commitment to Hegelian assumptions about matters of both philosophical substance and method.

His view that strong and unified passions make one virtuous is mathematically derivable from this subjectivism and a conceptual analysis of virtue, explaining his evaluations of character and the nature of the Overman. Keywords: Nietzsche; Zarathustra; metaethics; virtue; subjectivism; Overman Friedrich Nietzsche may be the most forceful critic of morality in all of philos- ophy. Yet he often ascribes value to actions, characters, and ways of life. How are these evaluative claims consistent with his rejection of morality? This paper argues that while Nietzsche regards moral judgments as false beliefs, he sees passions as making their objects subjectively valuable in a nonmoral way.
