Neutralism and the Observational Sorites Paradox
In Ali Abasnezhad & Otavio Bueno (eds.), Synthese Special Edition. Springer (forthcoming)
Abstract
Neutralism is the broad view that philosophical progress can take place when (and sometimes only when) a thoroughly neutral, non-specific theory, treatment, or methodology is adopted. The broad goal here is to articulate a distinct, specific kind of sorites paradox (The Observational Sorites Paradox) and show that it can be effectively treated via Neutralism.Author's Profile
