題目:
Reimagining Icarus: Defining the Ethical and Legal Parameters for Human Space Exploration

要旨:
Space exploration and human spaceflight inherently raise numerous practical, ethical and legal issues for consideration, to include medical, scientific and technological implications. In some instances, ethics and law may overlap, this is particularly evident in the area of bioethics. Whereas, in other areas such as risk, ethics and law can be more visibly distinct. This talk will highlight some of the significant and pressing issues facing the space industry today with regard to developing practical ethical and legal frameworks for human space exploration. Topical parameters here can be broadly categorized as: 1) Medical – this includes bioethics, medical uncertainty, spaceflight selection and medical monitoring, and informed consent; 2) Environmental – human implications and planetary protection, and space as the ‘province of all mankind’; 3) Risk Management – appropriately evaluating the risks inherent to human spaceflight is one of the more demanding yet currently underdeveloped areas of moral decision-making frameworks, this includes comprehending the relevant risk culture and geopolitical climate; and 4) Societal conceptions and perceptions on what it means to be an ‘astronaut,’ and the accompanying rights and duties of spacefarers. These overarching topics present a big picture perspective on some of the pertinent interconnected physical, legal and ethical parameters for individuals engaged in human space activities. Yet the global nature of space exploration activities also calls for a wider discussion on appropriate ethical approaches to developing practice and norms, particularly on the questions of risk, uncertainty and understanding in what ways human spaceflight and exploration impact and inform our societal and moral frameworks on Earth.

題目:
Dialetheism and the Exclusion-Expressing Device
概要:
Dialetheism is the view that, against the Law of Non-Contradiction (LNC),
some A’s are true together with their negation, not-A. Hence a famous
anti-dialetheic objection, which I will cal the “Exclusion Problem”:
dialetheists cannot rule out anything, or express disagreement, for their
dialetheic negation of A is compatible with A.
In this talk I propose a strategy to address the problem, which starts by
assuming a primitive notion of exclusion and defines via it a notion of
contradiction, rhetorically called *absolute*, such that no contradiction
of this kind is acceptable for a dialetheist. Via such a notion we can
express in a non-question-begging way what the opposition between
dialetheists and non-dialetheists consists in, and we can give to the
dialetheist a non-pragmatic exclusion-expressing device. The big issue is
whether such a device is free from dialetheically intractable revenge
paradoxes. I have no answer to this, but I’m curious to hear what my
audience thinks!

題目:
How to Be a Semantic Holist?
概要:
The view that meaning is holistic is highly controversial and is usually
not treated as an independent thesis but rather appears as a vital drawback
of a theory of meaning in the literature for its not being able to deliver
a notion of shared meaning. Such attitude is so prevalent that oftentimes
people simply take semantic holism as a reason for the rejection of a
theory without further argument. As is often the case, however, there is no
agreement among those engaged in the debate what semantic holism is. With
the varied definitions of the doctrine, commentators disagree on not only
its truth but also its content and intelligibility.

In this paper, I suggest understanding semantic holism as characterizing
the determination relation between the meaning of an expression and its
determinants and argue that we can best capture the features maintained by
the holist by construing semantic holism as the view that the meaning of an
expression E is determined by E’s relations to every other expression in
the language of individual competent users. It follows from my definition
that, firstly, the often alleged worry that if meaning is holistic, any
change in one’s language will change the meanings of all the expressions in
the very language does not follow. Secondly, it is an inevitable outcome
that there is no guaranteed meaning sharing available for semantic holism
so understood. This latter fact, however, does not commit us to the
rejection of semantic holism. For holistic meanings, like their
non-holistic counterparts, are sharable either across individuals or time
slices, or so I shall argue.

題目:ディルタイの「生の哲学」と「歴史的理性批判」の射程 ーカント、ハイデガー、アーレントを手掛かりにしてー
要旨:
敗戦直後の昭和21年(1946年)に生前の西田幾多郎博士等による推薦文付きで、『ディルタイ著作集』(創元社、全15巻+別巻1)が西田門下の多くが編集校閲・翻訳者として加わり刊行を開始した。だが、第四巻一冊を刊行しただけで、この企画は頓挫した。西田幾多郎、和辻哲郎、三木清等、当代の第一級の哲学者によって高く評価されたディルタイ哲学の意義は、その後の流行思想の陰に隠され、長い間忘却されてきた(ちなみに和辻哲郎は、ハイデガーよりもディルタイの解釈学を高く評価した)。ところが、ディルタイの主著『精神科学序説』第一巻(1883年)の遺稿(第二巻)が100年後の1983年に刊行され、それをきっかけにグローバルな規模で「ディルタイ・ルネサンス」が着実に進行してきた。
報告者は、新たな構想の下で刊行を開始した日本語版『ディルタイ全集』(法政大学出版局、全11巻+別巻1)の編集代表として企画・編集校閲・訳者を務めてきた経験に基づいて、ディルタイの生の概念と生の哲学、解釈学の意義とともに、彼の歴史的理性批判のプロジェクトの歴史的・今日的意義を論じる。
特に近年、「生」をめぐる哲学的・倫理学的議論の必要性と深まりだけでなく、生政治学や精神病理学、生命科学や医学など諸学問の広範な展開のなかで、「善き生」と「剥き出しの生」の区別(アーレント、アガンベン等)に関する問題や「人工生命」の課題等に直面する今日、これまで多くの誤解に晒されてきたディルタイ哲学の正確な理解を深めることは、意義のある思想的営為であると思われる。今回の主要な報告内容は、以下の通りである。
①ディルタイ(Wilhelm Dilthey,1833-1911)の「生」(Leben)とは、どのような概念であったか。
②ディルタイの「生の哲学」(Lebensphilosophie)とは、どのような哲学であったか。
③「歴史的理性批判」(Kritik der historischen Vernunft)とは、どのような批判の試みであったか。
④ディルタイの歴史的理性批判によって提起された哲学の課題はなにか。
⑤現代哲学の立場から見て、ディルタイの「生」とその哲学的解釈学の意義はどこにあるか。
上記の主要課題について、まずディルタイ自身の論述に即して、彼の哲学思想の内容理解に努める。次に論文の形式によって、新カント派、ハイデガー、アーレント、ハーバマース等によるディルタイ批判と評価を手掛かりにして、ディルタイの生の概念、歴史的生の解釈学、歴史的理性批判の試みの哲学史的及び今日的意義を論じる予定である。

題目:How to escape triviality results?
概要:
“Adams’ thesis” is often interpreted as the claim that the subjective probability of an indicative conditional A→B equals the corresponding conditional probability P(B|A). Many scholars show that this interpretation will be attacked by triviality results, so they reject Adams’ thesis. I will show what triviality results are and what they have in common. Then I try to give another interpretation of Adams’s thesis to escape triviality results. First, I propose a 3-valued semantics for indicative conditionals and claim that the probability of A→B is equal to probability of A∧B. Second, from the way we bet on indicative conditionals, I distinguish the probability of an indicative conditional from the assertability of an indicative conditional, and interpreted Adams’ thesis as: 
The assertability of a simple indicative conditional p→q equals the corresponding conditional probability P(q|p), provided P (p) > 0. 
Finally, I will argue that this interpretation can escape all triviality results on the market.

Title: Self-reflection in Hume and Locke

Locke maintains that the self is a thinking thing who is always aware of
itself as a subject of thinking or perceiving; thus he says, “it being
impossible for anyone to perceive, without perceiving, that he does
perceive” (Locke 1975: 138).   He grants reflexive consciousness as an
integral aspect of the self as a subject.  Hume, on the other hand, does
not seem to be able to allow the self to have such self-reflexivity that
Locke does, given his official view of the self merely as a bundle of
perceptions, nothing more, nothing less.  This difference is clearly
reflected in their accounts of personal identity.   However, Hume still
argues that personal identity arises from consciousness that Hume considers
as “a reflected thought” (T App. 20).  What sort of reflection does Hume
have in mind?  How could Hume explain the mind’s act of reflection without
introducing a mind as a distinct actor?  Is Hume’s “reflected thought”
different from Locke’s self-reflexivity in their explanations of personal
identity?   I will attempt to answer these questions by first considering
Locke’s self-consciousness that appears in his account of personal
identity, and then discussing Hume’s possible explanation of reflection.
