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

A synthesis view of counterfactuals

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
Abstract There are two prominent views of counterfactuals in the literature—variably strict conditional accounts developed by Stalnaker 1968 and D. K. Lewis 1973, and strict conditional accounts defended by von Fintel 2001, Gillies 2007, and others. Unfortunately, both views face serious challenges. This paper argues that traditional strict conditional
