SUMMARY:FAH/DPHIL Lecture Series – "Recalcitrance\, Rationality\, and the Nature of Emotion" by Prof. Adam Bradley\, Lingnan University\, Hong Kong
DESCRIPTION:Microsoft Teams: https://go.um.edu.mo/7mnk1eav \n  \nAbstract \nRecalcitrant emotions—emotions that persist despite beliefs that rationally conflict with them—are a testing ground for theories of emotion. Cognitivists hold that emotions are or involve beliefs\, which straightforwardly explains how they can rationally conflict with other beliefs. But it is dubious that a subject who fears a dog they know to be harmless literally holds contradictory beliefs about its danger. Perceptualists hold that emotions are perception-like states\, which avoids this problem but introduces another: perceptual states do not seem to rationally conflict with beliefs at all. Thus\, such views cannot explain why recalcitrant emotions involve genuine irrationality. There appears to be no stable middle ground: any attitude short of belief seems to generate too little rational conflict\, while belief generates too much. Motivated by this impasse\, Alex Grzankowski develops what I call a formal account of recalcitrance\, which appeals to a structural rational principle rather than any substantive theory of emotion. I argue that formal accounts\, however appealing\, fail to address what I call the Grounding Question: what is it about emotional states that makes them apt for rational conflict with beliefs in the first place? Drawing on recent work on reasons and rationality\, I argue that emotions must be reasons-responsive—the processes governing their formation must be sensitive to the subject’s reasons. I then develop an empirically grounded account of emotions as evaluative states integrating both lower-level perceptual and higher-level cognitive inputs. On this model\, the balance between these inputs varies across emotional episodes\, explaining why some emotions are more susceptible to recalcitrance than others\, and why recalcitrant emotions resist some contrary judgments but not others. \n  \nBio \nAdam Bradley is an Assistant Professor of Philosophy and Fellow of the Hong Kong Catastrophic Risk Centre at Lingnan University\, Hong Kong. He works primarily the philosophy of mind\, psychiatry\, and artificial intelligence. Topics he has written on include the nature of bodily pain\, rationality and delusional belief\, and the potential for welfare in AI systems. He received his Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University of California\, Berkeley in 2019.

SUMMARY:Lecture by UM Macao Distinguished Visiting Scholar: 'How health influencers use algorithms to create discourses: distorting medical information for niche marketing groups'
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nHealth professionals are concerned about how social media influencers\, lacking professional training\, have become leading players in the provision of health-related knowledge to the public. Such information can be\, at best\, misleading.  Yet\, as scholars have observed\, there is still less good understanding of this form of influencer-created\, health-related\, content and why it is so successful. In this talk I look at some case studies from an ongoing project looking at how leading influencers on a Chinese social media platform\, RedNote\, provide information for young women about sexual health and STDs as part of their primary aim of marketing a probiotics product for which they are sponsored.  I show how information is formulated in the first place\, not on the basis of clear\, coherently presented\, health issues\, but in accordance with configurations of personal concerns\, interests and lifestyle issues which are algorithmically identified.  From a health communication perspective what we can learn from this is that a displacement of medical logic is part of the structural feature of influencer-driven health communication.  It may not be simply a matter of supplying ‘correct’ information. \n  \nBiography: \nDavid Machin is Professor of Communication\, working presently the fields of health communication and in particular nutrition.  Has published across leading journals in the field and has several internationally established text books in multimodality and discourse analysis including Machin\, D and Mayr\, A. (2023) How to do Critical Discourse Analysis and Machin\, D and Ledin\, P. (2020) Introduction to Multimodal Analysis.  He is co-editor of Social Semiotics (SSCI-indexed) and sits on the editorial board of all the leading international journals in the field of discourse studies.

SUMMARY:FAH-DPORT: UM Distinguished Visiting Scholar – Robin James Smith\, Cardiff University and The University of the Witwatersrand
DESCRIPTION:Dear Professors and Students\, \nWe are most pleased to invite all to attend the following Seminar by UM Distinguished Visiting Scholar Professor Robin James Smith\, Professor of Sociology\, Cardiff University and The University of the Witwatersrand\, on “Context\, Contexture\, and Congregational Gestalts”\, on Friday\, 2:00pm\, in room E21a-3118. \n  \nBIO \nRobin James Smith is Professor of Sociology in the School of Social Sciences\, Cardiff University\, and Visiting Professor at the University of the Witwatersrand. He has studied mobile interaction in public space\, urban outreach work with rough sleepers\, the work of mountain rescue\, and policing practice. These projects connect through an interest in mobility\, space\, and perception\, with a particular focus upon members’ categorisational practices. He has published extensively from these studies in a range of leading international journals and had edited several books including On Sacks (Routledge)\, The Lost Ethnographies (Emerald Publishing) and Leaving the Field (Manchester University Press). \n  \nABSTRACT \nContext\, Contexture\, and Congregational Gestalts \nIn this paper\, I explore and extend the recent resurgence of an ethnomethodological attention to praxeological Gestalts. Specifically\, I attend to the production and maintenance of the cohered contexture of a work site – namely\, a mountain rescue training scenario. By analysing video data recorded during a “live exercise” of a casualty extraction\, I attend to the ways in which sequential-categorial-relevancies are accomplished and oriented to in the organisation of the work of caring for the casualty. The case provides a nice demonstration of the work of maintaining a simulated Gestalt in which the medical care is getting done\, its disruption when the simulated ‘frame’ is disrupted\, and\, most significantly\, a sustained and continued production of the worksite as a worksite for the doing of mountain rescue. Through the analysis\, I aim to remedy Watson’s (2015) complaint that worksite studies have\, strangely\, seldom attended to categorisation practices and their situated significances. Methodologically\, the paper is an argument against fragmentary\, individualistic\, treatments of social order and for a unitary analysis of complex scenes and settings. \nIN ENGLISH LANGUAGE

SUMMARY:FAH/DPHIL Work-in-progress Seminar - "The Thought of Germany and The Reality of France: In Memory of Bernard Stiegler" by Mr. Li Renjie
DESCRIPTION:Microsoft Teams: https://go.um.edu.mo/ptupr7d5 \n  \nAbstract \nIs there such a thing as a French philosophy of technology? What drew Bernard Stiegler’s attention to the question of technics\, viz.\, its constitutive role to human beings? What prompted him\, in the first volume of Technics and Time\, to engage a domain that had long remained repressed\, unexplored\, or even unthinkable in the history of philosophy? In this presentation\, I will trace the concept of technics as memory in Stiegler’s thought through his appropriation of German philosophy\, especially Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger\, in dialogue with Plato and the French archaeologist and paleoanthropologist André Leroi-Gourhan. From there\, I analyze how the technical aporia provides a dual foundation for Stiegler’s philosophical architecture. Finally\, this presentation considers how\, and to what extent\, philosophy and art\, in Stiegler’s view\, can respond to the disproportion between technics and organs. \n  \nBio \nRenjie Li is currently a PhD candidate in the Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies at the University of Macau (advised by Qingjie James Wang). His research interests focus on Franco-German philosophy (esp.\, Gilbert Simondon\, Bernard Stiegler\, and Martin Heidegger)\, philosophy of technology\, and digital art. Li has published in Leonardo\, Philosophy East & West\, and Balkan Journal of Philosophy. He is the Chinese translator of《機器與愛欲：許煜北藝大演講集》[Machine and Eros] (Taipei National University of the Arts Press\, 2026\, co-translated)\,《後歐洲》[Post-Europe] (Guangxi Normal University Press\, 2026)\, and《在機器的邊界思考》[Thinking at the Boundaries of Machines] (Guangxi Normal University Press\, 2025\, co-translated).
