Hume Solved That UID:20240328T192240Z-iCalPlugin-Grails@philevents-web-6f97df9687-7c6q9 TZID:Australia/Melbourne LOCATION:Old Physics Building\, Parkville Campus\, Melbourne\, Australia DESCRIPTION:
Abstract: Response-dependent accounts of normative or evaluative properties have been motivated by naturalistic concerns&mdash\;concerns with finding explanatory work for these properties to do within the causal order of things&mdash\;and also by the thought that reasons or value would lack authority for agents if those agents could be radically alienated from them. \; At the same time\, response-dependent accounts have typically explained normative and evaluative properties not in terms of people&rsquo\;s actual responses\, but instead their responses in idealized circumstances&mdash\;how the agent would respond if well informed\, thinking clearly\, and so on. \; David Enoch has argued forcefully that idealization is inconsistent with the theoretical motives behind response-dependent accounts. \; Idealization of the responses makes the properties accounted for less explanatory and more potentially alienating. \; I will argue the reverse\, focusing especially on the nature of dispositional explanations and how they provide a rationale for appealing to idealized responses.
