How Expressivists Can and Should Solve Their Problem with Negation
Expressivists have a problem with negation. The problem is that they have not, to date, been able to explain why ‘murdering is wrong’ and ‘murdering is not wrong’ are inconsistent sentences. In this paper, I explain the nature of the problem, and why the best efforts of Gibbard, Dreier, and Horgan and Timmons don’t solve it. Then I show how to diagnose where the problem comes from, and conseque...
متن کاملCan Counterfactuals Solve the Exclusion Problem?
A quite popular approach to solving the Causal Exclusion Problem is to adopt a counterfactual theory of causation. In this paper, I distinguish three versions of the Causal Exclusion Argument. I argue that the counterfactualist approach can block the first two exclusion arguments, because the Causal Inheritance Principle and the Upward Causation Principle upon which the two arguments are based ...
متن کاملWhen prone position is contraindicated or not preferable, can supine percutaneous nephrolithotomy solve the problem?
PURPOSE To assess safety and efficacy of supine percutaneous nephrolithotomy in patients for whom prone position or general anesthesia is contraindicated or not preferable due to associated comorbidities, overweight or ipsilateral upper ureteric calculi. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty two patients (37 males and 15 females, mean age 33 ± 10.2 years) were included in this study. Supine position wa...
متن کاملWhich symbol grounding problem should we try to solve?
Floridi and Taddeo propose a condition of “zero semantic commitment” for solutions to the grounding problem, and a solution to it. I argue briefly that their condition cannot be fulfilled, not even by their own solution. After a look at Luc Steel’s very different competing suggestion, I suggest that we need to re-think what the problem is and what role the ‘goals’ in a system play in formulatin...
متن کاملCan Symmetry Non-restoration Solve the Monopole Problem ?
We reexamine a recently proposed non-inflationary solution to the monopole problem, based on the possibility that spontaneously broken Grand-Unified symmetries do not get restored at high temperature. We go beyond leading order by studying the self-consistent one-loop equations of the model. We find large next-to-leading corrections that reverse the lowest order results and cause symmetry resto...
