This will be a talk (jww Ethan Russo and Chris Scambler) at the CFORS kick-off event on 11. September 2023, outlining an approach to imperatival foundations and some open questions.
Lecture: Bullshit, Politics, and Ignorance
We’ll consider the ideas of ignorance (in distinction to knowledge) and bullshit. We’ll discuss this in different areas, and how ignorance is sometimes mobilised in both a scientific and political context.
Lecture: Knowledge Resistance
We’ll look at how and why we can be resistant to evidence and knowledge. We’ll discuss the degree to which agents are at fault for knowledge resistance and common pitfalls.
