“Might” Made Right

In a couple of days, I will give a colloquium at the Institute of Cognitive Science of the University of Osnabrück. The topic will be “Might Made Right”, a paper on epistemic modals that I am writing with Thony Gillies. I have posted the handout to my web page. We will write the paper in January but the handout should give an idea of the subset of arguments we have against relativistic theories of epistemic modals, such as MacFarlane’s or Egan et.al.’s.
