Edouard Machery on Variations in Responses to Thought Experiments
About this episode
Edouard Machery discusses the variability of responses to thought experiments and challenges the notion of universal intuitions in philosophy.
Philosophers who use thought experiments often believe their own intutions in response to them are unviersal. But that's not always so. In this episode of the Philosophy Bites podcast Edouard Machery discusses his research on this topic, and some of his surprising conclusions. This episode was made in association with the Institute of Philosophy and supported by the Ideas Workshop which is part of the Open Society Foundations
