But is it possible to justify at least some? Hume's dilemma tries to answer in the negative. A simple version goes like this: "To justify a certain kind of induction, the (empirical) thesis that it will lead to a true conclusion has to be argued for, either demonstratively or inductively; the demonstrative route is impossible, while the inductive route is circular." In reply to this dilemma, I want to defend a general escape route that Reichenbach has briefly pointed out. The idea is that, to justify a certain kind of induction, we can argue for a non-empirical, normative thesis instead, a norm that guides some inductive practices. Call this the normative turn, which has been implemented consciously or unconsciously by some formal epistemologists, such as Bayesians, learning theorists, and Reichenbach himself. Unfortunately, they tend to set aside Hume's dilemma quickly and rush to develop their particular implementations of the normative turn. What I want to do for them is to slow down, consider possible ways Hume's dilemma might be thought to strike back, and address those worries by reference to the general features of the normative turn, without commitment to any particular implementation. Here is the lesson to be drawn: The problem of induction is difficult; Hume's dilemma represents a difficulty involved; the normative turn escapes Hume's dilemma and helps us identify the more important difficulties to be addressed.

His work primarily concerns the nature and role of idealizations and representations in the sciences and, more specifically, in condensed matter physics. FICTION, DEPICTION AND THE COMPLIMENTARITY THESIS IN ART AND SCIENCE In this paper, I appeal to a distinction made by David Lewis between identifying and determining semantic content in order to defend a complementarity thesis expressed by Anjan Chakravartty. The thesis states that there is no conflict between informational and functional views of scientific modeling and representation. I then apply the complementarity thesis to well-received theories of pictorial representation, thereby stressing the fruitfulness of drawing an analogy between the nature of fictions in art and in science. I end by attending to the problem of depicting impossible fictions. It is suggested that progress can be made by understanding the role of impossible fictions in science, namely, allowing researchers to probe into the possible structure and representational capacities of scientific theory.

The future of the category of race is uncertain. If there are no biological races within our species, as scientists increasingly accept, what should we do with the concept? Should we revise it, defining race as a social category? Or should we reject race as an illusion: a failed scientific category that does not accurately describe human biological diversity, and which provides fodder for racists? If we endorse the former option, we may be able to keep using the term, putting ?race? in scare quotes to indicate that it does not refer to a biological kind. If we favour the latter option, we probably shouldn?t keep using the term ?race? as a descriptor, because race doesn?t exist. Those who argue that race does not exist, or that we should eliminate the category on normative grounds, face a dilemma. Racial classification has been used to justify some of the most heinous crimes of modernity, but it has also been embraced by groups that have been treated as inferior ?races? as a way to assert and defend themselves collectively. A race-like category seems necessary for purposes of social justice. This symposium will explore issues surrounding ?replacing race?. Should the category be replaced, and if so, with what, and how? All are welcome, but please register for the symposium with Adam Hochman (adam.hochman at mq.edu.au) for catering purposes. (Deadline extended to next Wednesday.)

Our goal is to bring together researchers from different disciplines to consider a range of 'sub-clinical' but still problematic beliefs, the psychological processes which underlie those beliefs, and any similarities and dissimilarities with delusional thinking processes. These include conspiracy theorizing, anti-vaccination sentiments, extreme or radical political beliefs, climate change denial, belief in an intrinsically just world (and associated victim-blaming), and so on. Speakers include: cognitive scientists working on misinformation, delusions, and motivated beliefs; social psychologists working on conspiracy theories and related factors; philosophers working on evidence and social trust; and health informatics researchers interested in the effects of anti-vaccine beliefs.

In this talk, I attempt to fill a lacuna in the debate by making a connection with the literature on infinite and infinitesimal idealization in science through an example from mathematical physics that has been largely ignored by philosophers. Specifically, by appealing to John Norton?s distinction between idealization and approximation, I argue that the phenomena of fractional quantum statistics bears negatively on Mary Leng?s proposed path to easy road nominalism, thereby partially defending Mark Colyvan?s claim that there is no easy road to nominalism.

Yet we can communicate with it even if no one knows how tall is tall or how tall John is. How then do we reconcile the idea that such utterances convey information, with the idea that they exhibit vagueness? We argue that contextual resolution of words like ?tall? is determined by mechanisms of discourse coherence that specify the linguistic relations utterances containing them bear to prior discourse and the real-world situation they are embedded in. This allows us to explain how such utterances can have precise truth-conditions, yet exhibit vagueness: agents typically have incomplete information about the standards set by mechanisms of discourse coherence. It also elegantly captures the distinctive roles such utterances can play in communication: they can serve to make a useful distinction among the relevant class of individuals, as well as to refine our understanding of the contextual standards.

This duplicity was an explicit theme of German Idealism in its attempt to reconcile human subjectivity with natural philosophy. In this paper I will investigate Husserl?s attempt to both diagnose and solve this problem, with special attention to how Husserl repeats several articulations from the Idealist tradition. I will argue that Husserl?s version of the problem brings into relief a particular historical dimension largely missing from the German Idealist version.

Much recent work in metaethics and aesthetics insists that the answer is No; indeed, this answer is often treated as a data point in the literatures on moral and aesthetic testimony. I will argue once we correct for a common methodological mistake in these literatures, the answer must be Yes. I argue that this result undermines four of the most common solutions to the puzzle posed by moral and aesthetic testimony.
