BERGEN WORKSHOP ON LOGICAL EVIDENCE University of Bergen, 26th-27th May 2020 Deadline: 22nd March 2020 Confirmed speakers: * Gila Sher (University of California, San Diego) * Michael Devitt (The Graduate Center, CUNY) Call for papers: We invite submissions for 45-minute presentations, with additional time for discussion, on the broad topic of logical evidence, addressing questions including, but not limited to: * Can logical claims be justified? * If so, what distinct types of evidence can be relied upon? * Are our logical beliefs default reasonable? * What role do intuitions and logical paradoxes play in dictating our choice of logic? * Can it be rational to rely upon empirical evidence to justify logical theories? Submissions should take the form of anonymised 1,000-1,500 word abstracts, and be sent to benjamin.martin@uib.no<mailto:benjamin.martin@uib.no> by the 22nd March. Contact details, including paper title, affiliation and email address, should be submitted as a separate PDF. All submissions will be blind refereed. The workshop has no associated registration fee, but speakers will be required to fund their own travel and accommodation. An early-career masterclass on logical epistemology will immediately follow the workshop, from the 28th-29th May, for which a separate call will appear.
