Title
Collective accountability, social ontology and the totalitarian state (Prof. Rein Raud)

Abstract
Recent theories of the accountability of citizens for crimes committed by their state (Anna Stilz, Avia Pasternak) stress that such accounts can only be developed for democratic countries, where the citizens have a say in what the government does. However, the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian war and the issues surrounding it (for example, the legitimacy of a tourist visa ban for all Russian nationals) have raised with some urgency the problem of how to discuss collective accountability in a totalitarian state. When we look at the philosophical discourses enframing contemporary Russia, we discover their remarkable resemblance to certain debates held in the 1930s and 1940s in Japan and the Kyoto school of philosophy in particular. I will argue that the social ontology devised by Tanabe Hajime and Mutai Risaku can help us to put this debate into a broader context, especially in comparison with contemporary theories of collective subjectivity (notably Raimo Tuomela). My talk will comparatively analyse these theories and present a tentative sketch of an account of collective accountability for the citizens of totalitarian states on their basis.

Title
Slaves to the algorithms? Algocracy and republican liberty (Prof. Robert Sparrow)

Abstract
Increasingly, governments are relying on artificial intelligence to make, or inform, important decisions. In this paper I turn to republican political theory to evaluate the prospect of, what John Danaher has styled, “algocracy” and, in particular, the threat it might pose to the liberty of citizens. Republicanism implies that there are at least four different reasons to be concerned about government by AI. First, decisions made using AI will often be impossible for citizens to contest because the reasons for the decisions will be inscrutable, which calls into question the legitimacy of these decisions. Second, the inability of citizens to contest the outcomes of government decisions made using AI and/or the justification for the use of AI will render these arbitrary and inimical to liberty on a republican account. Third, overreliance on AI is likely to undermine civic virtues that are necessary to the defence of liberty. Fourth, AI is such a powerful technology that it may free governments from any fear of revolution. If we wish to benefit from the use of AI in government without sacrificing liberty, we must: ensure that decisions made by AI can be publicly contested; investigate ways to mitigate the impact of algocracy on the political culture of democracies; and resist the temptation to develop AI for applications that would grant governments too much power over their citizens. These are difficult challenges and in practice, I suggest, the use of AI in government poses a significant threat to liberty.

Title
RNA Therapeutics: Ethical, Social and Regulatory Aspect (Prof. Catherine Mills)

Abstract
The field of RNA therapeutics is set to disrupt the development, regulation and provision of medicinal interventions to prevent or treat disease. The best known example of an RNA-based intervention is the COVID-19 vaccines, but also includes highly specific cancer vaccines and other treatments for ultra-rare genetic diseases. In this paper, I discuss some of the ethical, social and regulatory implications of this disruptive field, focusing on questions of entrepreneurialism, equity and the potential development of truly personalised medicine.

CAPE Workshop: Possibilities of Southeast Asian Philosophy II

Date: July 29th (Mon.) 4:00pm-6:00pm
Place: UKIHSS II, 4th floor of Bldg.7 of this map)

Program
16:00-17:00 Prof. Decha Tangseefa (Associate Professor of Center for Southeast Asian Studies, Kyoto University) “Past, Present, Danger”
17:00-18:00 Prof. Kasem Phenpinant (Dean of the Department of Philosophy, Faculty of Arts, Chulalongkom University) “Deflective Democracy: Thailand after Election”

Abstract
Prof. Decha Tangseefa “Past, Present, Danger”
Ten years ago, the English version of my research on violence in Thailand’s deep south was published, entitled “Reading ‘Bureaucrat Manuals,’ Writing Cultural Space: The Thai State’s Cultural Discourses & the Thai-Malay In-between Spaces.” The article’s last paragraph invokes Walter Benjamin’s conception of history. Ten years after, picking up on where I left off in that publication, my Thai article – entitled “Past Present Danger” – elaborates on some key strands of Benjamin’s theoretico-philosophical concerns. It aims to present an alternative method for contemplating on violence in political society, especially that which relates to marginal people. Based on this latest article, this talk’s narrative is fourfold. The first three parts will discuss a series of interrelated problematiques by beginning with the intertwining relations of history, time, and the marginal. The second and the third articulate two sets of problematiques in Benjamin’s oeuvre. They are historiography, danger, and “the oppressed,” on the one hand, and cairo-logic, the “now-time,” and the Copernican revolution, on the other. The talk will end with a reflexive remark on what I name “death of the marginal?”

Prof. Kasem Phenpinant “Deflective Democracy: Thailand after Election”
Since the Thai junta leader returned to power as the prime minister after the general election, the current political situation has been entering a new crisis of democracy, along with the junta masquerading as a legitimate regime. Rather than ensuring stability, Thai politics confronts a new struggle over power, involving parliament, coalition government, and even military intervention. It entails a form of deflective democracy, that is, a regime of political power diminishes the functioning of democratic principles and institutions designed to guarantee democratic values. Deflective democracy occurs, when non-elected elites gain power over the elected representatives. It tends to form a parallel between authoritarian government and democratic decay.

An International Workshop on ‘Self: From Asia and Beyond’

Date:June 19th 3:00pm-6:00pm
Place:UKIHSS II, 4th floor of Bldg.7 of this map)

Program
15:00-16:00 Prof. Mark Siderits (Seoul National University) “Subjectivity without a Subject? Buddhist Self- vs. Other-Illumination Perspectives”
16:00-17:00 Prof. Yumiko Inukai (University of Massachusetts) “Cognitive and Affective Accounts of the Self in Hume”
17:00-18:00 Prof. Mickaella Perina (University of Massachusetts)“Self and Others, Self and World: Difference, Relationality and Opacity”

Abstract
Prof. Mark Siderits “Subjectivity without a Subject? Buddhist Self- vs. Other-Illumination Perspectives”
Those who deny the existence of a self must answer the following question: if it only appears as though there is a self, to what does it so appear? Some Buddhist non-self theorists tried to answer this question by claiming that every cognition has two aspects—an object-aspect and a subject-aspect. To the objection that the subject-aspect sounds suspiciously like a self (as the subject of experience), these Buddhists replied that the two aspects of a cognition are strictly speaking one. The result was a theory of cognition according to which the content of a conscious mental state is self-illuminating. Other Buddhists criticized this account on various grounds. In my talk I want to explore the prospects of the alternative other-illumination theory, according to which a mental state is conscious only insofar as its content is available for processing by other mental states. Would this make us all zombies? And are Buddhas really Robo-Buddhas?

Prof. Yumiko Inukai “Cognitive and Affective Accounts of the Self in Hume”
Most discussions of Hume’s views of the self focus on 1.4.6, “Of personal identity.” This section is the only section in A Treatise of Human Nature in which Hume offers an extensive discussion of the self. In that section, interestingly, Hume makes a distinction between two ways of dealing with the problem of personal identity: “as it regards our thought or imagination, and as it regards our passions or the concern we take in ourselves” (T 1.4.6.5). He discusses the former in Book 1, and the latter in Book 2. Hume clearly thinks that personal identity can be explained from two different perspectives. However, some might argue that there is inconsistency, or at least a gap, between his skeptical conclusion about the self reached in Book One and his appeal to the awareness of the self in his accounts of passions in Book Two. In this talk, I argue that the two views of the self in Book 1 and Book 2 are not inconsistent at all. The former is a minimal form of the self, the persisting self, and the latter, with the existence of the persisting self in place, arises with particular characters, sentiments, and narratives. I call Hume’s account of the self in Book 2 a “flesh and blood” account, because the self that emerges in Book 2 is not just a being with continuous existence (Book 1) but a particular, concrete individual that performs certain actions and has particular sentiments and characters.

Prof. Mickaella Perina “Self and Others, Self and World: Difference, Relationality and Opacity”
The concept of relation is central to conceptions of the self in Caribbean thought in general, and in Francophone/French Caribbean thought in particular. In this tradition identity is often conceived of as articulated to the other’s difference and the intricacies of subjective identification are understood in light of the Caribbean experience of colonization and creolization. This presentation addresses several debates regarding the existence of the self with an emphasis on relational conceptions of the self, the unity of the self (and threat to it), and opacity to others and to oneself.

Prof. Jeremy Gray lecture ‘The philosophy of Hermann Weyl’

Date: Monday, April 2nd, 2018
Time: 16:30-18:00
Venue: Large conference room in the basement, Faculty of Letters Main Building, Yoshida Campus, Kyoto University. (No. 8 http://www.kyoto-u.ac.jp/ja/access/campus/yoshida/map6r_y/ )
Speaker: Prof. Jeremy Gray教授 (The Open University, University of Warwick)

Title: The philosophy of Hermann Weyl
Abstract:
By 1910, the year he turned 25, Weyl was developing a finitist philosophy of mathematics, based on a logical theory of relations. He also believed that the human mind can understand ideas only sequentially. He developed this approach on his book The Continuum (1918), and for a time came close to agreeing with Brouwer’s intuitionism, but he abandoned them in the mid-1920s when he became involved in exploring the theory of Lie groups. He then had to turn back towards Hilbert’s ideas about mathematics and physics, and developed his own theory of what he called the symbolic universe in which mathematics and physics supported each other in complementary ways. Weyl sought a unified philosophy that would govern not only his scientific practice but be rooted in a theory of knowledge and an understanding of how it is acquired.

About Prof. Jeremy Gray:
Jeremy Gray is an Emeritus Professor of The Open University and an Honorary Professor in the Mathematics Department at the University of Warwick. His research interests are in the history of mathematics, specifically the history of algebra, analysis, and geometry, and mathematical modernism in the 19th and early 20th Centuries. The work on mathematical modernism links the history of mathematics with the history of science and issues in mathematical logic and the philosophy of mathematics.

He was awarded the Otto Neugebauer Prize of the European Mathematical Society in 2016 for his work in the history of mathematics, and the Albert Leon Whiteman Memorial Prize of the American Mathematical Society in 2009 for his contributions to the study of the history of modern mathematics internationally. In 2012 he was elected an Inaugural Fellow of the American Mathematical Society. In 2010 he was one of the nine founder members of the Association for the Philosophy of Mathematical Practice (APMP).

He is the author of eleven books, of which among the most recent are Plato’s Ghost: The Modernist Transformation of Mathematics (Princeton U.P. 2008), Henri Poincaré: a scientific biography (Princeton 2012), and The Real and the Complex (Springer 2015). Two more books are to be published in 2018: Under the Banner of Number: A History of Abstract Algebra, by Springer, and Simply Riemann in the Simply Charly series of e-books.

オーガナイザーによる宣伝:
自由意志と道徳的責任の問題は——粗っぽい言い方だが——哲学者および倫理学者が長らく気にしてきた事柄です。とはいえ、近年のいわゆる「自由意志と道徳的責任の哲学」においては、注目すべき関心の変化が存します。それは、「非難(blame)」という現象への関心が増大する、という変化です。だがここで言う「非難」とは何か、そしてなぜそれは問題なのか。こうした基本的な問いへ答えることをひとつの目標として、本ワークショップでは、近年出版された非難の哲学の優れたアンソロジー(*)の編者のひとりであるジャスティン・コーツ氏(ヒューストン大学・Assistant Professor)が、非難の哲学に関する入門的な講義を行なうと同時に、氏自身の立場も展開します。またオーガナイザーである山口尚(京都大学・非常勤講師)も自由意志・道徳的責任・非難をめぐる哲学的問題、すなわちいわゆるフランクファート事例に関する問題とスピノザの『エチカ』に関する問題を論じます。入門に触れたい方も、踏み込んだ論点を考察したい方も、奮ってご参加ください。なお、本ワークショップは、発表、質疑応答ともすべて英語で行われます。
