In this brief essay, we clarify Cohen’s ‘Facts and Principles’ argument, and then argue that the objections posed by two recent critiques of Cohen—Robert Jubb (Res Publica 15:337–353, 2009) and Edward Hall (Res Publica 19:173–181, 2013)—look especially vulnerable to the charge of being self-defeating. It may still be that Cohen’s view concerning facts and principles is false. Our aim here is merely to show that two recent attempts to demonstrate its falsity are unlikely to succeed. 相似文献

This article contributes to the ongoing debate initiated by Bernard Williams’ claim that, due to the non-contingent finitude
of the categorical desires that give meaning to our lives, an immortal life would necessarily become intolerably boring. Jeremy
Wisnewski has argued that even if immortality involves periods in which our categorical desires have been exhausted, this
need not divest life of meaning since some categorical desires are revivable. I argue that careful reflection upon the thought-experiments
adduced by Wisnewski reveals that they do not substantiate his proposal, and hence that a plausible reason for rejecting Williams’
position has not been provided. 相似文献

Recently, Cohen and Timmerman (Journal of Ethics & Social Philosophy, 10(3), 1–18, 2016) argue that actualism has control issues. The view should be rejected, they claim, as it recognizes a morally irrelevant distinction between counterfactuals over which agents exercise the same kind of control. Here we reply on behalf of actualism.
