How should we, as philosophers, respond to the pure moral testimony of people in marginalized positions? Some philosophers argue that marginalized people have an epistemic advantage concerning their experiences of marginalization, such that, if we are non‐marginalized, then we should defer to their moral testimony concerning these experiences. We might accept this as a requirement for ordinary conversation but doubt that any such requirement obtains when we do philosophy, since philosophy requires a critical stance. This paper argues that philosophers should also defer in such cases. It concludes that non‐marginalized philosophers can only properly address certain moral propositions concerning the experiences of marginalized people if they engage in ongoing philosophical discussions with such people, starting from a position of trust.
作为哲学家,我们应该如何回应处于边缘地位的人的纯粹道德证词?一些哲学家认为,边缘人在他们的边缘化经历方面具有认识论上的优势,因此,如果我们没有被边缘化,那么我们就应该尊重他们关于这些经历的道德证词。我们可能会接受这一点,将其作为普通对话的要求,但怀疑在我们从事哲学研究时是否也有这样的要求,因为哲学需要批判的立场。本文认为,在这种情况下,哲学家也应该服从。本文的结论是,非边缘化哲学家只有从信任的立场出发,与边缘化人群进行持续的哲学讨论,才能恰当地处理与他们的经历相关的某些道德命题。

The poverty of postmodernist constructivism: And a case for naturalism out of Hume, Darwin, and Wittgenstein 后现代主义建构主义的贫困:从休谟、达尔文和维特根斯坦论证自然主义

This essay develops a naturalist framework based on Hume, Darwin, and Wittgenstein against postmodernist constructivism. That framework claims universal features of human biology, cognition, and behavior to explain our cultural histories, running contrary to two core constructivist doctrines of postmodernist scholarship: mutual opacity and epistemic violence. Mutual opacity posits the incommensurability of systems rooted in differing contexts, cultures, and group identities, while epistemic violence morally impugns the extension of the knowledge claims of any such system beyond its strictly localized boundaries. This is the extension that universalist approaches, like naturalism, are recriminated against owing to their claims to discover encompassing standpoint‐independent and transcultural features of human constitution and modes of life. Comparative evaluation of these approaches exposes the failure of postmodernist constructivism to explain parallel practices, conventions, and institutions across human cultural histories, which universalist naturalism succeeds at, while moreover revealing how this failure undermines its agendas of social justice.
这篇文章以休谟、达尔文和维特根斯坦为基础,针对后现代主义建构主义提出了一个自然主义框架。该框架主张以人类生物学、认知和行为的普遍特征来解释我们的文化历史,这与后现代主义学术的两个核心建构主义学说--相互不透明性和认识暴力--背道而驰。相互不透明性假定了植根于不同背景、文化和群体身份的系统的不可通约性,而认识论暴力则从道德上指责任何此类系统的知识主张超越其严格的本地化边界。这就是普遍主义方法(如自然主义)所指责的延伸,因为它们声称发现了人类构成和生活方式中独立于立场和跨文化的特征。对这些方法的比较评估揭示了后现代主义建构主义在解释人类文化史上的平行实践、惯例和制度方面的失败,而普遍主义自然主义却在这方面取得了成功,同时还揭示了这种失败是如何破坏其社会正义议程的。

Virtuous leadership: Ambiguities, challenges, and precedents 美德领导:模糊性、挑战和先例

Virtuous leadership is the focus of a growing body of academic literature but is little discussed by contemporary philosophers. Current treatments tend to over‐generalisation: assimilating diverse features to a few broad categories and applying simplified ethical theories. This essay argues that virtue and character education need to be keyed to specific activities, that “virtuous leadership” is in danger of being confused with extrinsic activism, and that the history of ethics in health care provides an instructive example of thinking ethically about practice. Questions commonly posed in the literature—What specific virtues are required for leadership? How may these be formed?—are unduly simple and often rest on faulty assumptions about the nature of leadership and of the structure of virtuous action. Philosophers engaged in advising professionals about the virtues of leadership would do well to consider how the relevant points apply to their own practice.
美德领导力是越来越多学术文献关注的焦点,但当代哲学家却鲜有论及。目前的论述倾向于过度概括:将各种特征归纳为几大类,并应用简化的伦理理论。本文认为,美德和品格教育需要与具体活动相结合,"美德领导力 "有可能与外在行动主义相混淆,而医疗保健领域的伦理史则为从伦理角度思考实践问题提供了一个具有启发性的范例。文献中通常提出的问题--领导力需要哪些具体的美德?如何形成这些美德?这些问题过于简单,而且往往建立在对领导力本质和美德行为结构的错误假设之上。哲学家们在向专业人士提供有关领导美德的建议时,最好考虑一下如何将相关观点应用到自己的实践中。

The practical turn in philosophy: A revival of the ancient art of living through modern philosophical practice 哲学的实践转向通过现代哲学实践复兴古老的生活艺术

Philosophical practice, an art of living rooted in ancient traditions, is enriched by modern techniques such as individual counseling, Socratic group dialogues, and organizational consulting. Philosophical counseling, a key aspect of this practice, employs traditional philosophical frameworks and rational reasoning to address clients' concerns, distinguishing itself from psychotherapy while respecting individual autonomy. The growing Western interest in Asian philosophies also underscores a shared pursuit of wisdom, spirituality, and meaning. This paper examines the development, key features, and leading proponents of philosophical practice, its relationship with academic philosophy, and the tensions between their differing aims and methods. The outlook for philosophical counseling is promising, offering an alternative to medical approaches for existential issues and expanding its scope to personal guidance, conflict resolution, and life‐skill development. Its future trajectory hinges on societal trends toward secularization, the de‐medicalization of mental health, and the increasing recognition of philosophy's intrinsic practical value.
哲学实践是一门植根于古老传统的生活艺术,并通过个人咨询、苏格拉底式小组对话和组织咨询等现代技术得以丰富。哲学咨询是这种实践的一个重要方面,它采用传统哲学框架和理性推理来解决客户关心的问题,有别于心理治疗,同时尊重个人的自主性。西方对亚洲哲学日益增长的兴趣也凸显了对智慧、灵性和意义的共同追求。本文探讨了哲学实践的发展、主要特点、主要支持者、哲学实践与学术哲学的关系,以及两者不同目标和方法之间的紧张关系。哲学咨询的前景是光明的,它为解决生存问题提供了医学方法之外的另一种方法,并将其范围扩大到个人指导、冲突解决和生活技能发展。其未来的发展轨迹取决于世俗化的社会趋势、心理健康的非医疗化以及对哲学内在实用价值的日益认可。

This paper employs structural topic modeling (STM) to describe the academic philosophy landscape in Brazil. Based on a public national database, a corpus consisting of 12,515 abstracts of monographs defended in philosophy graduate programs between 1991 and 2021 was compiled. The final STM model identified 74 meaningful research topics, clustered into 7 thematic categories. This study discusses the prevalence of the most significant topics and categories, their trends across three decades, and their (positive or negative) association with the supervisor's gender. Results show the first empirical evidence that Brazilian philosophical research exhibits a greater focus on philosophers than on specific themes or problems. Moreover, by visualizing the variations in topic prevalence over time, it was possible to track the rise or decline of the major interest categories and topics. Finally, results also show which topics are more influenced or less influenced by gender.

本文采用结构主题建模(STM)来描述巴西的哲学学术景观。基于国家公共数据库,本文汇编了 1991 年至 2021 年间哲学研究生项目中通过答辩的 12,515 篇专著摘要。最终的 STM 模型确定了 74 个有意义的研究课题,分为 7 个主题类别。本研究讨论了最重要的主题和类别的普遍性、它们在三十年间的发展趋势,以及它们与导师性别的(正或负)关联。研究结果表明,巴西的哲学研究更多地关注哲学家,而不是具体的主题或问题,这是第一个实证证据。此外,通过可视化主题流行率随时间的变化,可以追踪主要兴趣类别和主题的兴衰。最后,研究结果还显示了哪些主题受性别的影响更大,哪些更小。

This paper studies the structure of semantic theories over modular computational systems and applies the algebraic Theory of Institutions to provide a logical representation of such theories. A modular semantic theory is here defined by a cluster of semantic theories, each for a single program's module, and by a set of relations connecting models of different semantic theories. A semantic theory of a single module is provided in terms of the set of ∑-models mapped from the category Th of ∑-theories and generating a hierarchy of structures from an abstract model to a concrete model of data. The collection of abstract models representing different modules of a program is formalised as the category of institutions INS, where theory morphisms express refinements, integrations, and compositions between couples of modules. Finally, it is required that a morphism in INS at any level occurs iff the same morphism occurs at the lower level alongside the Th hierarchy.

本文研究了模块化计算系统的语义理论结构,并应用机构代数理论为此类理论提供了逻辑表示。在这里,模块化语义理论是由一组语义理论和一组连接不同语义理论模型的关系来定义的,每组语义理论针对一个程序模块。单个模块的语义理论由Σ-模型集提供,Σ-模型集由Σ-理论类别 Th 映射而来,并生成从抽象模型到具体数据模型的结构层次。代表程序不同模块的抽象模型集合被形式化为机构 INS 类别,其中的理论形态表达了模块耦合之间的细化、整合和组合。最后,要求 INS 中任何层次的形态发生时,如果 Th 层次结构中较低层次也发生了同样的形态,则表示该形态发生。

Beyond gatekeeping: Philosophical sources, Indigenous philosophy, and the Huarochirí Manuscript 超越把关:哲学来源、土著哲学和《瓦罗奇里手稿
IF 0.4 3区 哲学 N/A PHILOSOPHY Pub Date : 2024-07-13 DOI: 10.1111/meta.12695
Jorge Sanchez-Perez

This paper argues for a broad definition of philosophical sources and how Indigenous traditional knowledge fits that definition. It concludes by showing how, following the previous two points, an Indigenous document such as the Huarochirí Manuscript can be considered a philosophical source by academic philosophers. The paper has three sections: the first deals with the methodological point of addressing what can be considered as philosophy. This section presents a conversational approach to philosophy. This approach, although broad, properly captures the practices of inquiring about philosophical issues as is commonly done in Western academic circles, but without excluding the practices of non-Western cultures from being labelled as philosophical. The second section argues for the analytical distinction between a philosophical source, a philosophical text, and a philosophical insight. It shows that what makes a philosophical source such are the philosophical insights that it can provide. The final section shows how the Huarochirí Manuscript has merits making it worthy of being considered a philosophical source and thus a relevant academic source for those working in the field of philosophy.

本文论证了哲学来源的广义定义,以及土著传统知识如何符合该定义。最后,本文说明了根据上述两点,《瓦罗奇里手稿》等土著文献如何被学术哲学家视为哲学来源。本文分为三个部分:第一部分从方法论的角度论述了什么可以被视为哲学。这一部分提出了一种对话式的哲学方法。这种方法虽然宽泛,但却恰当地捕捉到了西方学术界通常对哲学问题进行探究的做法,同时也没有将非西方文化的做法排除在哲学之外。第二部分论证了哲学来源、哲学文本和哲学见解之间的分析区别。它表明,哲学渊源之所以是哲学渊源,是因为它能够提供哲学见解。最后一节说明了《瓦罗奇里手稿》的优点如何使其值得被视为哲学来源,从而成为哲学领域工作者的相关学术资料。

Aristotle's tyche (τύχη) and contemporary debates about luck 亚里士多德的 tyche (τύχη) 和当代关于运气的辩论

This paper proposes an interpretation of Aristotle's understanding of tyche (τύχη), a Greek term that can be alternatively translated as luck, fortune, or fate. The paper disentangles various threads of argument in the primary sources to argue for a realist understanding of what we moderns call “luck.” In short, it contends that Aristotle's account of these issues is mostly correct and merits close attention when canvassing recent philosophical debates about luckology. Aristotle argues that science pertains to the general rule; it is not about the particular. Particular events have contingent content that exceeds the scope of science. Even if we could predict all future events with ultimate accuracy, we would still be left wondering why good or bad things happen to specific people. Although luck is not a scientific category, it has an existential reality that leaves momentous events open to metaphysical and even religious interpretation.

本文对亚里士多德对 tyche(τύχη)的理解进行了阐释,"tyche "是一个希腊术语,可译为运气、财富或命运。本文对原始资料中的各种论证线索进行了梳理,以论证对我们现代人所说的 "运气 "的现实主义理解。简而言之,本文认为亚里士多德对这些问题的论述大多是正确的,在讨论近期关于运气学的哲学争论时值得密切关注。亚里士多德认为,科学与一般规则有关;它与特殊性无关。特定事件的偶然性内容超出了科学的范围。即使我们能够最终准确地预测所有未来事件,我们仍然会疑惑为什么好事或坏事会发生在特定的人身上。虽然运气不是一个科学范畴,但它具有存在的现实性,使重大事件可以得到形而上学甚至宗教的解释。

Methodologies and communities in comparative philosophy 比较哲学的方法论和社群
IF 0.4 3区 哲学 N/A PHILOSOPHY Pub Date : 2024-07-11 DOI: 10.1111/meta.12698
Stephen C. Angle

There is considerable disagreement and even confusion over what forms of border-crossing philosophizing are most appropriate to our times. Are comparative, cross-cultural, intercultural, blended, and fusion philosophy all the same thing? Some critics find what they call “comparative philosophy” to be moribund or problematically colonialist; others assert that projects like “fusion philosophy” are intellectually irresponsible and colonialist in their own way. Can we nonetheless identify a distinctive project of comparative philosophy and say why it is important? Based on a broad survey of approaches, this essay offers schematic answers to these questions, clarifies some persistent confusions, and stresses the constitutive gamble that lies at the heart of all comparative philosophy. There are several different ways to do comparative philosophy well; which method to employ depends on the values that motivate and the pragmatic situation that frames one's inquiry, and on the ways in which one or more communities receive and respond to one's contribution.

对于何种形式的跨界哲学最适合我们的时代,存在着相当大的分歧,甚至混淆不清。比较哲学、跨文化哲学、跨文化哲学、混合哲学和融合哲学都是一回事吗?一些批评家认为,他们所谓的 "比较哲学 "已经奄奄一息,或带有殖民主义色彩;另一些批评家则断言,像 "融合哲学 "这样的项目在智力上是不负责任的,本身就带有殖民主义色彩。然而,我们能否确定比较哲学的独特项目,并说明它为何重要?本文在对各种方法进行广泛调查的基础上,对这些问题给出了示意性的回答,澄清了一些长期存在的困惑,并强调了所有比较哲学的核心所在--构成性的赌博。有几种不同的方法可以很好地进行比较哲学研究;采用哪种方法取决于激励人们进行研究的价值观和实际情况,以及一个或多个社群接受和回应人们贡献的方式。

There are several different ways to do comparative philosophy well; which method to employ depends on the values that motivate and the pragmatic situation that frames one's inquiry, and on the ways in which one or more communities receive and respond to one's contribution.</p>","PeriodicalId":46874,"journal":{"name":"METAPHILOSOPHY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2024-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141610327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This essay aims to shed new light on the theoretical pertinence of classical Indian logic and epistemology in Benedetto Croce's criticism of Western Aristotelian and modern logic. As a matter of fact, Croce gave a positive and extraordinarily enterprising evaluation of “Indian Logic” in his review of Hermann Jacobi's Indische Logik (1905) and in his book Logic as the Science of the Pure Concept (1996 [1909]). Yet Croce's significant and considerable evaluation of “Indian Logic” has remained neglected until today. This essay tries to clear the field of some prejudices that misled scholarly research on Croce and Indian philosophy, and it glosses in detail the “neglected” judgment on “Indian Logic” in Croce's Logic. In doing so, it critically discusses some epistemological questions starting from Croce's philosophy, such as the character of “natural induction,” the relationship between language and thought, and the connection between historical languages and logical forms.

本文旨在揭示印度古典逻辑学和认识论在贝内代托-克罗齐对西方亚里士多德逻辑学和现代逻辑学批评中的理论相关性。事实上,克罗齐在他对赫尔曼-雅各比的《印度逻辑》(1905 年)的评论和他的《作为纯概念科学的逻辑学》(1996 年 [1909])一书中,对 "印度逻辑 "给予了积极和非凡的评价。然而,克罗齐对 "印度逻辑 "的重要评价直到今天仍被忽视。本文试图厘清误导学术界对克罗齐和印度哲学研究的一些偏见,并对克罗齐《逻辑学》中 "被忽视的 "对 "印度逻辑 "的评判进行了详细的梳理。在此过程中,它批判性地讨论了从克罗齐哲学出发的一些认识论问题,如 "自然归纳法 "的特征、语言与思维的关系、历史语言与逻辑形式的联系等。
