DESCRIPTION:<p>Title:&nbsp\;Inductive Risk and Value Freedom\, Revisited</p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p>Abstract:&nbsp\;&nbsp\;Work on the role of values in science has grown and diversified dramatically in the 21st&nbsp\;century. But there is a near-consensus on one basic point\, namely the value-ladeness &ndash\; that is\, ladeness with social\, moral and political values &ndash\; of all aspects of the scientific process\, including &ldquo\;core&rdquo\; aspects like the bearing of evidence on hypotheses. My goal in this talk is to buck this trend and argue for a somewhat old-fashioned view about the relation between science and values: science-based decision making is best carried out by separating factual assessments from value judgments\, and a healthy division of labor assigns the former task primarily to scientists. I argue for this view by taking a new look at the debate over inductive risk\, both in its original form (Rudner\, 1953\; Jeffrey\, 1956) and in more recent incarnations (Douglas 2000\, 2009\; Elliott 2011\; Steele 2012\; Parker and Winsberg\, 2017).</p>\n\n<p>This talk will also be available live streamed on You Tube at&nbsp\;https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrRp47ZMXD7NXO3a9Gyh2sg</a>.</p>
