The Jowett Society (Friday - Week 4, MT24)

Philosophical Society

Abstract: Let’s say you are in an open choice situation when, for every option you have, you have a better one. I guess that, though you have never been in an open choice situation, you have views about how you would and should proceed in some open choice situations. These views suggest answers to some important structural questions in value theory: Are there independent dimensions of value? If so, how do these dimensions of value interact? And they have an immediate bearing on some important problems in value theory: the spectrum problem and the problem of fanaticism.
