Killing Kripkenstein's Monster
Noûs 54 (2):257-289 (2020)
Abstract
Here I defend dispositionalism about meaning and rule-following from Kripkenstein's infamous anti-dispositionalist arguments. The problems of finitude, error, and normativity are all addressed. The general lesson I draw is that Kripkenstein's arguments trade on an overly simplistic version of dispositionalism.Author's Profile
