#سخنرانی_آنلاین پروفسور لگن هاوزن ✅ Moderate Epistemic Relativism: Defense and Motivation 👤 Hajj Muhammad Legenhausen(The Imam Khomeini Education and Research Institute) ⭕️ Abstract: I describe a form of epistemic relativism that has the following distinctive features: (1) What is relative are some judgments about whether a person is justified in believing something for some set of reasons. (2) The parameters relative to which these judgments are made also determine rankings among parameters and whether a given parameter is admissible. So, there are relative rankings and sets of admissible parameters. There is no assumption that all points of view are of equal validity. (3) Descriptive and normative (prescriptive) relativism are distinguished in terms of parameter admissibility. Moderate epistemic relativism is then defended against the peritrope, and charges of subjectivism, self-vindication, and immunity from criticism. Finally, six lines of argument to motivate moderate epistemic relativism are sketched: variability in tuning or calibrating standards of justification, recognition of discretion in justification assessments, lack of absolute truthmakers for justification claims, the inconclusiveness of absolutist intuitions, the underdetermination of justification by reasons or the failure of evidentialism, and pragmatic considerations of legitimate variation in justification practices. 🗓 زمان: چهارشنبه 19 آبان 1400؛ ساعت 15 🌐 این برنامه در اتاق سخنرانی‌های گروه فلسفه علم شریف به نشانی زیر برگزار خواهد شد: 📎 https://vc.sharif.edu/ch/philsci-speech 🆔@meshkatnoor
