A Faithful Response to Disagreement

چکیده
In the peer disagreement debate, three intuitively attractive claims seem to conflict: there is among peers on many important matters; a serious challenge one's own opinion; and yet one should be able maintain opinion matters. This article shows that contrary initial appearances, we can accept all of these claims. Disagreement significantly shifts balance evidence; but with respect certain kinds claims, nonetheless retain beliefs. And them even though beliefs would not supported by new total evidence if didn't already hold them.

A Non-Alethic Approach to Faultless Disagreement
This paper motivates and describes a non-alethic approach to faultless disagreement involving predicates of personal taste (PPTs). In section 1 I describe problems faced by Sundell’s (2011) indexicalist approach, and MacFarlane’s (2014) relativist approach. In section 2 I develop an alternative, non-alethic, approach. The non-alethic approach is broadly expressivist in that it endorses both the...

Quine’s relevant assumption is that talk about language is much les...

متن کاملSustaining a Rational Disagreement
Much recent discussion in social epistemology has focussed on the question of whether peers can rationally sustain a disagreement. A growing number of social epistemologists hold that the answer is negative. We point to considerations from the history of science that favor rather the opposite answer. However, we also explain how the other position can appear intuitively attractive. Disagreement...
