Philosophy for Lunch: "Can We Achieve Objectivity?"

Thursday, September 30, 2021 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM

We sometimes criticise one another for a lack of objectivity. If you think Jack’s idea is better than Tori’s solely because Jack is your friend, Tori might rightly say that you are not being objective in your reasoning. What if all reasoning is like your reasoning here? That is, what if there is no such thing as objectivity in reasoning? In this week’s P4L, we’ll see why Thomas Nagel thinks that such objectivity is possible. In fact, he thinks it is virtually inescapable.
