| What’s the use of philosophy? I have the answer!—at X (screen shot there), after Philip Kitcher. I would argue that the humanities (U. of Penn. project) make genuine demo- cracy possible, though I see conceptual modeling differently than the U. of Penn. project. March 16 My extended cynicism against Bozo turns into bibliophilic hope for “moral” thinking in conceptions of educational excellence—though “moral,” to me, is just ethical pragmatism treated as statutory norm. My discussion leads into a sequenced sense of moral conceptuality, a specific humanity (relative to themes there—points of light—for constellating some leading minds) which can credibly ground a post-naturalistic sense of evolu- tionary ethics. Philosophy can pragmatically serve educational excellence, which can serve progressive practice. March 14 I’m working steadily, but openness to emergent themes goes where it appeals. I may have more to share next week or not. I hope to get closure on new developmental work this weekend. |
