Abstract:

Kuhn famously talks about the scientists after a scientific revolution living in a different ‘world’ from the scientists prior to the revolution. This talk could be understood in lots of different ways, but one way is certainly that the notion of truth is relative to a paradigm—a form of idealism. This chapter lays this out and argues against it by arguing against the strong form of incommensurability on which it relies. In particular, the chapter (i) argues that even in the course of a Kuhnian ‘crisis,’ arguments from neutral ground for or against some candidate paradigms can be mounted, and (ii) argues against Feyerabend’s contention that because the rivals in a ‘crisis’ disagree on the gold standards for reliable observations, there is no non-question-begging way to confirm or to disconfirm those rivals. The chapter draws upon Galilean examples to argue for each of these points.

Abstract:

Chapter 2 covers views on the nature of scientific change (continuous or discontinuous; cumulative or revolutionary) and about the role of external considerations in science (corruptive or necessary), and how they depend on prior views about the nature of scientific knowledge. It sketches the principal epistemological ideas of logical empiricism, holism, and contextualism and outlines the attitudes toward change and external influence each licenses. The licensed attitudes are illustrated by reference to contemporary research on human aggression.

Aldred, Jonathan. Risk and Precaution in Decision Making about Nature. Edited by Stephen M. Gardiner and Allen Thompson. Oxford University Press, 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oxfordhb/9780199941339.013.32.

Full text

Abstract:

The normative bases for two fundamentally different approaches to environmental decision making are examined. First, orthodox “risk assessment.” In the conditions of (partial) uncertainty or ignorance prevailing in many environmental decisions, it is argued that CBA and similar forms of risk assessment should not be used in isolation. Second, the precautionary principle. Two conditions—broadly speaking, “uncertainty” and “particular threats”—seem especially relevant to determining the applicability of the precautionary principle. Gardiner’s “Rawlsian Core Precautionary Principle” is examined in detail. It features both conditions; an incommensurabilist interpretation of the latter is adopted. In short, precaution is justified in decision contexts involving both uncertainty and incommensurability. Since both uncertainty and incommensurability are matters of degree, there are intermediate cases to consider. The analysis argues that with “more” uncertainty, “less” incommensurability is required to justify precaution, and vice versa.

Abstract:

This chapter argues that anthropologists and theologians cannot speak about the contributions that theology could make to anthropology without first discussing the two discipline’s relationship. Rejecting both genealogical accounts and universalist narratives that deny the historical and institutional specificity of either discipline, it sees theologians, anthropologists, and the people about whom they write as all being engaged in the same work. They are all struggling with immanent and virtual problems in the sense used by Gilles Deleuze. This means rejecting understandings of anthropology and theology as second-order accounts, however, and seeing theological and anthropological thought as just other ways of thinking the problem through, albeit ways that often more clearly index the underlying problem. The chapter illustrates this argument by showing similarities in anthropological, theological, New Atheist, and Mormon attempts to grasp what may be the twenty-first century’s greatest challenge: an incipient technical possibility of transcending our humanity.
