On this view, vices are grounded in attitudes towards self: fatalism, self-satisfaction, narcissistic infatuation, and self-abasement.

Abstract Absolute velocities in Newtonian mechanics are commonly regarded as unmeasurable. Roberts (Br J Philos Sci 59(2):143–168, 2008) provides a justification for this thesis which appeals to the observational indistinguishability of boost-related models mechanics. Middleton and Murgueitio Ramírez (Australas Philos, 2020) criticise his argumentation by pointing out that analysis notion measu...

Several recalcitrant problems in philosophy are based on the same mistake in which philosophers take their own knowledge of the truth rather than the subject’s just...

It is argued that there gap associated with an insufficiently defined concept justification, which does not allow talking about without any explicit imp...

Internalists and externalists fundamentally disagree about how moral judgments motivate. think that morally good people should have de re desires to do right things, agents who are motivated by the dicto desire whatever is fetishists. In contrast, accept can both relevant desires. My aim provide an argument for internalism, which goes beyond context in sides currently debate I will first introd...
