Aggregation and the Structure of Value
Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Roughly, the view I call “Additivism” sums up value across time and people. Given some standard assumptions, I show that Additivism follows from two principles. The first says that how lives align in time cannot, in itself, matter. The second says, roughly, that a world cannot be better unless it is better within some period or another.

A Formal Theory of Robert Nozick's Framework for Utopia
Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper offers the very first formal model of Robert Nozick's model of possible worlds and his vision of a utopian society, as outlined in Part III of Anarchy, State, and Utopia.

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Hummingbird pollination is a hallmark of American plant diversity and has long been thought to evolve in tropical mountains due to declining bee activity. Using sister species of Costus specialized on bees (C. kuntzei) and hummingbirds (C. wilsonii), we show that this shift is not driven by reduced bee visitation with elevation, but by greater ...

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.

Precarious agency: The role of uptake
The Southern Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.Abstract How do we overcome the agency dilemma, that is, account for the fact that power relations heavily affect our agency without neglecting the many ways in which oppressed people act meaningfully? This article offers a solution by paying special attention to socially complex uptake in a framework of communities of practice. In order to explain the

The Southern Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.Abstract This article reinterprets Levinas's account of ethical subjectivity by centering the temporality of the pas encore (“not yet”) and drawing on new materials in Œuvres complètes. I argue that, in Totality and Infinity, eros and ethics are internally continuous: eros generates a responsible not yet of time, secured by fecundity and oriented to ...
