Possibilities for Social Equity Budgeting: Critical Insights From Bentham?

Public Administration, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Considering prior ways of seeing and practical mobilisations of Social Equity Budgeting (SEB), we suggest that prior conceptualisation, research and practice can be advanced by reflecting on insights from the philosophical and political literature on equity and justice.

Apparent Paradoxes Are Paradoxes and the Problem of Change Is an Apparent Paradox

Pacific Philosophical Quarterly, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we argue that, under certain conditions, if something is, apparently, a paradox, then it is a paradox. We then apply this claim to a recent discussion on the so‐called “Problem of Change.” Throughout the history of Philosophy, many authors have viewed change as a paradoxical phenomenon. More recently, some have defended that the

Sufficient Reason Vindicated

Analytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT I give an argument for a version of the principle of sufficient reason from several plausible principles about negative facts and sufficient conditions. I then give an argument for a slightly weaker version of the principle without the reference to negative facts.

Doubting the Truth of Hume's Principle

Organon f, 2010

External‐World Skepticism and the New Ethics of Belief

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT External‐world skepticism challenges, among other things, the epistemic credentials of beliefs about other people. Some external‐world skeptics deny that I know my loved ones exist; some claim that my belief that my loved ones exist is epistemically impermissible. However, abandoning this belief would be highly unattractive.

Visual Icons

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Philosophers often characterize perception as image‐like. There is little agreement, however, about what constitutes an imagistic or iconic representation. This article identifies five signature properties of iconic representations endorsed in the philosophical and scientific literature: item‐richness, feature‐richness, spatiotemporal ...
