Probability in Philosophy

The concept of probability is important to many debates in philosophy, including debates about causation, explanation, free will, evidence, knowledge, rational belief, rational decision, and the interpretation of scientific theories. This two-day workshop will explore both the nature of probability and the role that it plays in philosophical debates. It aims in particular to make progress on integrating contributions to the philosophy of probability from diverse sub-disciplines such as metaphysics, epistemology, decision theory, and philosophy of science.

The workshop is free and open to the public. The 01 November location is on Level 4 of 250 Victoria Parade. The 02 November location is Level 1 of Cathedral Hall, Australian Catholic University. For the detailed schedule, see the supporting material below.
