Rousseau and the Spirit of Autonomy: A Pathos of Vigour International Journal of Philosophical Studies Pub Date : 2023-04-04 Etienne Cardin-Trudeau
ABSTRACT Rousseau’s political project consists in ensuring that the citizens of the social contract, in uniting with each other, preserve their ability to self-legislate, or be autonomous. For this to work, however, members of the social contract would need to feel intrinsically linked to the political whole. This essay investigates what that feeling might be and how it can be grown. I argue that Rousseau

Action as Abductive Performance: An Improvisational Model International Journal of Philosophical Studies Pub Date : 2023-03-08 Alessandro Bertinetto, Patrick Grüneberg
ABSTRACT According to Gilbert Ryle, improvisation is a basic feature of ordinary action. In this paper, we take this idea seriously. Action is improvisation, in that it is situated: It is shaped by attentive responses to environmental circumstances. This is a crucial aspect of agency. However, it is neglected by causal theories of action (Bratman; Mele) and only partially addressed by Thompson’s process-oriented

Phenomenalism, Skepticism, and Sellars’s Account of Intentionality International Journal of Philosophical Studies Pub Date : 2023-02-15 Griffin Klemick
Abstract I take up two questions raised by Luz Christopher Seiberth's meticulous reconstruction of Wilfrid Sellars's theory of intentionality. The first is whether we should regard Sellars as a transcendental phenomenalist in the most interesting sense of the term: as denying that even an ideally adequate conceptual structure would enable us to represent worldly objects as they are in themselves. I

Response to Critics: Phenomenalism, Fallibilism and Finitude International Journal of Philosophical Studies Pub Date : 2023-02-15 Luz Christopher Seiberth
ABSTRACT I respond to objections from three rigorous readers challenging me to detail in what sense Sellars is a transcendental philosopher, as well as to defend the claim that ‘picturing’ is crucial to his account of intentionality. This further involves defending the tenability of transcendental phenomenalism and arguing against scepticism about picturing. Finally, this involves the question of whether

Sellars’s Transcendental Philosophy International Journal of Philosophical Studies Pub Date : 2023-02-14 Michael R. Hicks
ABSTRACT Luz Seiberth's interpretation of Sellars as a transcendental philosopher promises to change the way we read Sellars. Nonetheless, I dispute two of his central claims: that by depicting ”picturing” as as a transcendental imposition we can see it as addressing a ”vertical” constraint that Kant does not detect; and that Sellars's transcendental philosophy commits him to a Kantian ”necessitarianism”

Blame, Nudging, and the Actual Moral Relationship International Journal of Philosophical Studies Pub Date : 2023-02-02 Nicholas Sars
ABSTRACT T. M. Scanlon posits a universal moral relationship in response to the worry that his relational approach to blame cannot answer the question of how strangers can fittingly blame one another. However, commentators have noted that appealing to universal moral standards seems to explicitly deviate from a relational approach’s basis in actual relationship norms. This paper argues that Scanlon’s
