Dear all, Please join us for the CamPoS (Cambridge Philosophy of Science) seminar
Wednesday 26th 1-2:30pm in the Dept of History and Philosophy of Science, Seminar Room 2. Shyane Siriwardena (Cambridge) will give a talk entitled "Interventionist causation and the placement problem". The abstract is below. Best wishes, Christopher ABSTRACT: I consider the normative question "Should the concept of causation be used in the sciences" from within a manipulationist framework. In particular, I will explore three distinct reasons why manipulationists of different stripes (i.e. interventionists and agency theorists) might be compelled to answer this question in the negative. _____________________________________________________ To unsubscribe from the CamPhilEvents mailing list, or change your membership options, please visit the list information page: http://bit.ly/CamPhilEvents List archive: http://bit.ly/CamPhilEventsArchive Please note that CamPhilEvents doesn't accept email attachments.
