SUMMARY:FAH/DPHIL Lecture Series – “Kang Youwei on Sexual Equality” by Prof. Xinyan Jiang\, University of Redlands\, USA
DESCRIPTION:Zoom: https://umac.zoom.us/j/94306394241 \nPassword: 113021 \n  \nAbstract \nThis talk examines Kang Youwei’s view of sexual equality based on the study of his The Book of the Great Unity (Da Tong Shu 《大同書》). In the existing literature Kang’s feminism has rarely been discussed in depth\, even though the volume on women’s oppression and liberation is one of the most significant parts of The Book of the Great Unity. In the talk I argue that Kang’s critique of the subjection of women is the most systematic\, profound\, and fierce in the history of modern Chinese philosophy. Although his theory of sexual equality is essentially the combination of liberalism\, utilitarianism\, and socialism\, his work on the subject should be given a special place in modern feminist philosophy. Unlike Western feminist thinkers\, Kang understood the suffering of oppressed women in non-Western countries\, especially in China\, and spoke out for them in a way that no one did before. His work on sexual equality remains very relevance today\, especially to women’s liberation in developing countries. \nBio \nXinyan Jiang is Professor and Chair of the Department of Philosophy at the University of Redlands. She received her B.A. and M.A. in philosophy from Peking University\, and her Ph.D. from the University of Cincinnati. She was a faculty member of the Department of Philosophy at Peking University before leaving China. She has taught and published in both Chinese and Western philosophy. Besides publishing numerous scholarly articles and several book chapters\, she is also the author of two books and the editor of two anthologies. She was the founding chair of the Committee on Asian/Asian American Philosophers and Philosophies of the American Philosophical Association (1998-2002)\, Currently she is Deputy Executive Director for North America of the International Society for Chinese Philosophy.

SUMMARY:FAH/DPHIL Lecture Series – “After Order: Interregnum and Ethics of Disorder in Global Politics” by Prof. Xiaoyu Lu\, Peking University\, China
DESCRIPTION:Zoom: https://umac.zoom.us/j/98714060738 \nPassword: 895191 \n  \nAbstract \nDeparting from the concept of “failed world”\, this lecture explores the politics of co-living in the time of uncertainty. The liminal and in-between state of international society is no longer a state of exception\, but a state of inception that introduces overlapping layers of hybrid orders and norms. Instead of proposing alternative world orders as attempts to formulate a minimalist morality\, this lecture overturns the direction of inquiry and asks how we can manage to live in disorder\, in the absence of normative consensus. It proposes a new form of cosmopolitanism\, that is built on and adapted to contingencies\, risks and ruins of our existing political and ecological disasters\, and envisions an emancipatory politics of dissensus. \n  \nBio \nXiaoyu Lu is an Assistant Professor at School of International Studies at Peking University and was a Research Fellow at the Strategic and Defence Studies Centre at the Australian National University. Xiaoyu received MSc and DPhil degrees in Politics at St Antony’s College\, University of Oxford\, and previously worked at the United Nations Development Programme. His research focuses on conflict and peace\, and International Relations theory\, with field experience in Syria\, Lebanon\, Myanmar and Colombia. He is the founding director of PeaceLab that promotes conflict and peace studies and dialogues in China. His monograph titled Norms\, Storytelling and International Institutions in China: The Imperative to Narrate is published with Palgrave MacMillan in 2021.

SUMMARY:FAH/DPHIL Guest Lecture – “Kant's Philosophy of Moral Luck” by Prof. Samuel Kahn\, Indiana University-Purdue University\, Indianapolis
DESCRIPTION:Zoom: https://umac.zoom.us/j/95785802564 \nPassword: 884651 \n  \nAbstract \nIn the modern moral luck debate\, Kant is standardly taken to be the enemy of moral luck. My goal in this paper is to show that this is mistaken. The paper is divided into six sections. In the first\, I show that participants in the moral luck literature take moral luck to be anathema to Kantian ethics. In the second\, I explain the kind of luck I am going to focus on here: consequence luck\, a species of resultant luck. In the third\, I explain why philosophers have taken Kantian ethics to reject moral luck and\, in particular\, consequence luck. In the fourth\, I explain why these philosophers are mistaken\, and I set out Kant’s theoretical framework for consequence luck. In the fifth\, I clarify and defend this framework\, and in the sixth\, I interrogate and attack it. \n\nBio \nSamuel Kahn is currently an Associate Professor of Philosophy at Indiana University-Purdue University\, Indianapolis. He received dual degrees in Philosophy and Bioengineering in 2005 from the University of Pennsylvania\, and he received a PhD in Philosophy in 2012 from Stanford University. He has been the recipient of numerous prizes and scholarships\, including a Fulbright in 2008 and a Geballe in 2011. In 2013 Samuel won the Review of Metaphysics dissertation essay contest\, and in 2015 he was included in the Prindle Institute for Ethics Young Philosophers Lecture Series. His work on Kant has won the prestigious Markus Herz prize (2011)\, and he is the first person to win the North American Kant Society Wilfrid Sellars prize twice (2019\, 2021). He has published over 30 articles and book reviews in journals including Ethics\, Kantian Review\, Kant Studien\, and British Journal for the History of Philosophy. His first research monograph\, Kant\, Ought Implies Can\, the Principle of Alternate Possibilities\, and Happiness\, appeared with an imprint of Rowman & Littlefield in 2018; his second\, Kant’s Theory of Conscience\, appeared in the Cambridge University Press Element series in 2021.

SUMMARY:FAH/DPHIL Lecture Series – “On Having and Lacking Certainty” by Prof. Matthew Ratcliffe\, University of York\, UK
DESCRIPTION:Zoom: https://umac.zoom.us/j/99459515373 \nPassword: 978914 \n  \nAbstract \nThis paper develops a phenomenological account of what it is to have and to lose an underlying sense of “certainty”. By drawing on themes in Wittgenstein’s later writings and also the phenomenological tradition\, I conceive of having certainty in terms of the anticipatory structure of experience. It consists in a practical\, non-localized\, unwavering sense that things will work out\, that one will be able to go on. This also involves the pre-reflective acceptance of a form of uncertainty. I conclude by suggesting that\, by conceiving of certainty in this way and acknowledging its fragility\, we can better understand various different disturbances to which human experience is susceptible. \n\nBio \nMatthew Ratcliffe is Professor of Philosophy at the University of York\, UK. He has also held positions at University College Cork\, Durham University\, and the University of Vienna. His work addresses issues in phenomenology\, philosophy of mind\, and philosophy of psychiatry. He is author of the books Feelings of Being: Phenomenology\, Psychiatry and the Sense of Reality (Oxford University Press\, 2008)\, Experiences of Depression: A Study in Phenomenology (Oxford University Press\, 2015)\, Real Hallucinations: Psychiatric Illness\, Intentionality\, and the Interpersonal World (MIT Press\, 2017)\, and Grief Worlds: A Study of Emotional Experience (MIT Press\, 2022).
