Abstract

The philosophical literature on disagreement has largely focused on conflicts of beliefs, values, credence ascriptions, and so on. Very scant philosophical attention has been paid to conflicts in attention. And yet, it is quite intuitive that we often conflict with each other (and within our own selves) essentially in terms of what we are paying attention to and how. The purpose of this paper is to illuminate such attentional conflicts.

How to attend

This is a read-ahead seminar. The meetings have a hybrid format. We meet in person in GM 652 and digitally on Zoom (Zoom login required).

The meeting link, along with a copy of the paper to be discussed, will be made available in advance via the mailing list.
