Should moral intuitionism go social?
- 2023
-
In: Noûs. - : John Wiley & Sons. - 0029-4624 .- 1468-0068. ; 57:4, s. 973-985
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In recent work, Bengson, Cuneo, and Shafer-Landau (2020) develop a new social version of moral intuitionism that promises to explain why our moral intuitions are trustworthy. In this paper, we raise several worries for their account and present some general challenges for the broader class of views we call Social Moral Intuitionism. We close by reflecting on Bengson, Cuneo, and Shafer-Landau's comparison between what they call the “perceptual practice” and the “moral intuition practice”, which we take to raise some difficult normative and meta-normative questions for theorists of all stripes.

Genome-wide meta-analysis identifies 11 new loci for anthropometric traits and provides insights into genetic architecture
- 2013
-
In: Nature Genetics. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 1061-4036 .- 1546-1718. ; 45:5, s. 501-U69
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Approaches exploiting trait distribution extremes may be used to identify loci associated with common traits, but it is unknown whether these loci are generalizable to the broader population. In a genome-wide search for loci associated with the upper versus the lower 5th percentiles of body mass index, height and waist-to-hip ratio, as well as clinical classes of obesity, including up to 263,407 individuals of European ancestry, we identified 4 new loci (IGFBP4, H6PD, RSRC1 and PPP2R2A) influencing height detected in the distribution tails and 7 new loci (HNF4G, RPTOR, GNAT2, MRPS33P4, ADCY9, HS6ST3 and ZZZ3) for clinical classes of obesity. Further, we find a large overlap in genetic structure and the distribution of variants between traits based on extremes and the general population and little etiological heterogeneity between obesity subgroups.

Alien Structure and Themes from Analytic Philosophy
- 2019
-
In: Giornale di Metafisica. - 0017-0372. ; 41:1, s. 195-208
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We think of the world as consisting of objects, with properties and standing in relations. There are, to be sure, different views on what objects etc. there are, and on what their natures are. And some theorists want to subtract some elements from this picture. For example, the ontological nihilist says that there are no objects. But still, the view described is very much orthodoxy—so much orthodoxy that one may need to be reminded that the view that the world consists of objects, with properties and standing in relations is, precisely, a view. I here investigate the possibility that this view is false: that there is what may be called alien structure. And I investigate the relationship between alien structure and some important themes from the history of analytic philosophy.

Carnapian Frameworks Revisited
- 2023
-
In: Acta Philosophica Fennica. - 0355-1792. ; 100, s. 91-113
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In his recent article "Carnapian Frameworks", Gabriel Broughton criticizes my discussions of Carnap on ontology and puts forward his own interpretation of what Carnap’s external/internal distinction amounts to. I here first argue that Broughton’s main claims about me are based on a misinterpretation. Then I turn to some issues of broader interest. I will argue that Broughton’s own, potentially interesting interpretation of Carnap’s external/internal distinction does not work. And in light of Broughton’s discussion I present a sharpened version of what I have earlier said about Carnap’s external/internal distinction.

- I critically discuss Douglas Edwards' construal of the debate over truth, and his case for truth pluralism. Toward the end I present a constructive suggestion on Edwards' behalf. This suggestion avoids the problems I have presented, whatever in the end its fate.

Incoherentism and the Sorites Paradox
- 2019
-
In: The Sorites Paradox. - Cambridge : Cambridge University Press. - 9781316615690 - 9781107163997 - 9781316730485 ; , s. 78-94
-
Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Incoherentism about vagueness is the view that vague expressions/concepts are incoherent due to their vagueness. This chapter elaborates on what incoherentism is, and defends a particular incoherentist view. It presents an overview of important arguments for and against incoherentism. Among arguments for the view are claims that it provides an attractive account of the nature of vagueness, and of the way in which vagueness is associated with indeterminacy. Among arguments against the view are claims that it presupposes a mistaken view on semantic/conceptual competence, and that the view sits ill with how ubiquitous vagueness is. The specific view defended is compared to the views of Michael Dummett, Terence Horgan and Peter Unger.

Inconsistency and replacement

In: Inquiry. - 0020-174X .- 1502-3923. ; 62:4, s. 387-402
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The article is an extended critical discussion of Kevin Scharp's Replacing Truth (2013a). Scharp's case for the claim that the concept of truth is inconsistent is criticized, and so is his case for the claim that the concept of truth must be replaced because of its inconsistency.

Making sense of logical pluralism
- 2020
-
In: Inquiry. - : ROUTLEDGE JOURNALS, TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD. - 0020-174X .- 1502-3923. ; 63:3-4, s. 433-454
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The article is centered on the question of how best to understand the logical pluralism/logical monism debate. A number of suggestions are brought up and rejected on the ground that they render the debate trivial or otherwise philosophically uninteresting. One way to make philosophical good sense of the debate is to find a canonical purpose for logic such that the monist is someone who holds that some unique logic best serves this purpose and the pluralist holds that many logics do. However, in the article, general obstacles to finding such a purpose are discussed.

Normative Properties
- 2023

In: The Routledge Handbook of Properties. - Abingdon; New York : Routledge. - 9781003246077 - 9781032158761 - 9781032158815 ; , s. 417-426
-
Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In this chapter a number of different questions about normative properties are discussed. What are normative properties? What makes a property normative in the first place? What is the role of normative properties in the metaethical debate over realism and antirealism? What is the relationship between normative properties and normative concepts? Towards the end I bring up the point that there arguably are many normative properties besides those that we tend to focus on in philosophical discussions, and the implications of this point. The overall aim of the chapter is to highlight some underexplored questions.

Possible Limits of Conceptual Engineering : Magnetism, Fixed Points and Inescapability
- 2023
-
In: Argumenta. - 2465-2334. ; 8:2, s. 339-356
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In contemporary philosophy there is much focus on conceptual engineering: the enterprise of revising and replacing concepts. In this talk, I focus on a theoretical issue that has not yet received much attention. What principled limits are there to this sort of enterprise? Are there concepts that for principled reasons cannot or should not be revised or replaced? Examples discussed include logical concepts and normative concepts.
