DESCRIPTION:<p>Abstract:</p>\n<p>It is controversial what role (if any) the paternalist&rsquo\;s belief about the recipient&rsquo\;s practical agency plays in explaining why paternalism is wrong. In this talk\, I argue that this belief plays a significant role when and only when it falsely underestimates the excellence of the recipient&rsquo\;s agency. Holding such a belief constitutes a morally objectionable failure of what Darwall (1977) calls&nbsp\;<em>appraisal respect</em>. Treating someone paternalistically on this basis is wrong because it legitimises this objectionable appraisal and harms the recipient by preventing them from acting prudently. While this epistemic aspect of paternalism does not explain why all<em>&nbsp\;</em>instances of paternalism are wrong\, it does (at least partly) explain why all instances of a certain&nbsp\;<em>kind&nbsp\;</em>of paternalism &ndash\; what I call&nbsp\;<em>false-belief paternalism</em>&nbsp\;&ndash\; are wrong.</p>\n<p>Join Zoom meeting:</p>\n<p>https://monash.zoom.us/j/86351045263?pwd=1gHMLhmDnXiFJIV0Jl8s6GxhgBgylb.1&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Meeting ID: 863 5104 5263 // Passcode: 184791</p>
