Justification by faith necessarily leads to justice in society. IN post–apartheid South Africa, reconciliation has required truth telling plus confession and, most importantly, land redistribution. Failure at land redistribution in Zimbabwe has reduced the effectiveness of the post–colonial reconciliation program and perpetuated previous injustice. 相似文献

Chaim Perelman invokes the idea of “universal audience” for explaining the nature of philosophical argumentation as rational
rhetoric. As opposed to this view, centuries before Perelman, Socrates argues that philosophy should be conducted as a dialogue
between concrete individuals with very specific qualities. The paper presents these different views in order to claim that
the philosopher addresses neither a universal audience nor a particular other, but mainly and essentially the philosopher
herself/himself. This brings to light the problem of self-deception as a central problem of philosophical thinking. In posing
this view the paper uses Nietzsche’s definition of “the will to truth” as the will not to deceive, not even myself.

In response to the liar’s paradox, Kripke developed the fixed-point semantics for languages expressing their own truth concepts. (Martin and Woodruff independently developed this semantics,
but not to the same extent as Kripke.) Kripke’s work suggests a number of related fixed-point theories of truth for such languages.
Gupta and Belnap develop their revision theory of truth in contrast to the fixed-point theories. The current paper considers three natural ways to compare the various resulting
theories of truth, and establishes the resulting relationships among these theories. The point is to get a sense of the lay
of the land amid a variety of options. Our results will also provide technical fodder for the methodological remarks of the
companion paper to this one. 相似文献

The project of treating knowledge as an empirical object of study has gained popularity in recent naturalistic epistemology.
It is argued here that the assumption that such an object of study exists is in tension with other central elements of naturalistic
philosophy. Two hypotheses are considered. In the first, “knowledge” is hypothesized to refer to mental states causally responsible
for the behaviour of cognitive agents. Here, the relational character of truth creates a problem. In the second hypothesis
“knowledge” is hypothesized to refer to mental states causally responsible for the evolutionarily successful behaviour of
cognitive agents. Here, the problem lies in the fact that evolution by natural selection is not necessarily conducive to truth.
The result does not necessarily amount to eliminativism, however, since the naturalist may consistently reject the condition
of truth that lies behind these problems. 相似文献

The paper outlines a view of normativity that combines elements of relativism and expressivism, and applies it to normative
concepts in epistemology. The result is a kind of epistemological anti-realism, which denies that epistemic norms can be (in
any straightforward sense) correct or incorrect; it does allow some to be better than others, but takes this to be goal-relative
and is skeptical of the existence of best norms. It discusses the circularity that arises from the fact that we need to use
epistemic norms to gather the facts with which to evaluate epistemic norms; relatedly, it discusses how epistemic norms can
rationally evolve. It concludes with some discussion of the impact of this view on “ground level” epistemology.

Realism about the external world enjoys little philosophical support these days. I rectify this predicament by taking a relatively
pragmatist line of thought to defend commonsense realism; I support commonsense realism through an interpretation and application
of Donald Davidson’s notion of triangulation, the triangle composed of two communicators coordinating and correcting their
responses with a shared causal stimulus. This argument is important because it has a crucial advantage over the often used
abductive argument for realism. My argument avoids unwarranted conclusions, whereas the abductive argument is “inflationary”
because it reaches beyond the limits of evidence for its realist conclusion. To illustrate the problems of the abductive argument
and motivate my Davidsonian approach, I take a brief look at the abductive argument for realism in Frederick Will’s work.

Fairy tales have been used successfully in addressing difficult therapeutic issues in indirect ways. This paper describes how the Grimm's tale Brier Rose can help engage families with an academically gifted child in family therapy. The metaphor concepts of derivational search, indirection, and embedded commands are briefly discussed, the fairy tale is summarized, and the story is applied to the three metaphor concepts. 相似文献

This article provides a survey of the history of the dialogue between the disciplines of mathematics and theology. It identifies three principal historical periods—the ancient, the scientific revolution, and modern. It identifies five key themes—the ontological status of mathematics; mathematics as a bridge to a noumenal world; God's relationship to the physical universe and how mathematics is part of this; truth—its nature, how we know it, certitude; and the role of mathematics in culture. The author develops these themes by exploring the thinking of several major historical figures. 相似文献
