Title: Markos Valaris (UNSW)
Title: Reasoning, Rule-Following, and the ‘Taking’ Condition

Abstract: Reasoning is a way of forming or revising attitudes such as  
beliefs and intentions. But what sets reasoning apart from non-rational  
ways of forming or revising attitudes? According to a popular approach,  
reasoning consists in the exercise of dispositions to follow rules. In this  
paper I examine and reject attempts to make this idea precise.  
Rule-following theories, as I argue, struggle to capture the defeasibility  
of most of our reasoning. Taking defeasibility seriously, I suggest, should  
lead us to endorse what Paul Boghossian calls the Taking Condition, that  
is, the condition that reasoning requires taking it that your response is  
supported or warranted by your circumstances.
