DESCRIPTION:<p>&bull\;Title: We Have Positive Epistemic Duties</p>\n<p>&bull\;Date: 12/06</p>\n<p>&bull\;Time: 14:30-16:30</p>\n<p>&bull\;Abstract: This lecture examines evidence-uncritical claims about what people should or shouldn&rsquo\;t believe. It argues that in some cases\, people should believe certain propositions. To put it more vividly: we sometimes have positive epistemic duties. This position runs contrary to a current trend within epistemology that sees normative epistemology as limited to issuing permissions and proscriptions and never giving us prescriptions. I argue that the acceptance of certain paradigm negative epistemic duties commits us to the existence of positive epistemic duties. Along the way\, I argue for a second conclusion. Contrary to the popular view called evidentialism\, what we should or shouldn&rsquo\;t believe (in the evidence-uncritical sense) is not merely a function of the evidence we have. It depends as well on our abilities and opportunities.&nbsp\;</p>
