Expecting Equality

Expecting Many

The determiner many is analyzed relative to a notion of expectation that is introduced into contexts employed in the theory of generalized quantiiers. Issues concerning intensionality, vagueness, ambiguity and context change are considered along the way.

Expecting Bad Luck

This paper draws on Card’s discussions of moral luck to consider the complicated moral life of people—described as pessimists—who accept the heavy knowledge of the predictability of the bad moral luck of oppression. The potential threat to ethics posed by this knowledge can be overcome by the pessimist whose resistance to oppression, even in the absence of hope, expresses a sense of still havin...

Solar Neutrinos: Expecting 1996 *

These are remarks (mainly on the solar neutrinos) written in anticipation of 1996-the year which can be crucial for the neutrino physics. Recent results on solar neutrinos are discussed. The topics include: (solar) model independent approach to the solar neutrino problem, status of different solutions of the problem, standard and non-standard scenarios of the lepton mixing, light singlet fermio...
