Title: Philosophy Seminar: Katie Steele (ANU)
The next philosophy department seminar will take place on 6 October at
3:30pm on Zoom. The speaker will be Katie Steele (ANU). Please find more
details about the talk and the Zoom link below.----------Moral Uncertainty,
Noncognitivism, and the Multi-Objective StoryKatie Steele (ANU, with Pamela
Robinson)Abstract. We sometimes seem to face fundamental moral uncertainty,
i.e., uncertainty about what is morally good or right that cannot be
reduced to ordinary descriptive uncertainty. This phenomenon raises a
puzzle for noncognitivism, according to which moral thought involves
desire-like attitudes as opposed to belief-like attitudes. Can a state of
moral uncertainty really be a noncognitivist state? So far, noncognitivists
have not been able to offer a completely satisfactory account of it. Here,
we argue that noncognitivists should exploit the formal analogue between
moral uncertainty and moral multi-objective decision problems. Our
‘multi-objective story’ enables noncognitivists to save our moral
uncertainty thought and talk by explaining how the underlying phenomenon
could be noncognitivist. ----------Michael Nielsen is inviting you to
