Philosophical intuitions: Their target, their source, and their epistemic status
Grazer Philosophische Studien 74 (1):1-26 (2007)
| Abstract | Intuitions play a critical role in analytical philosophical activity. But do they qualify as genuine evidence for the sorts of conclusions philosophers seek? Skeptical arguments against intuitions are reviewed, and a variety of ways of trying to legitimate them are considered. A defense is offered of their evidential status by showing how their evidential status can be embedded in a naturalistic framework. | |||||||||
