My paper with @lgarciaportela.bsky.social asks how climate science fits into this picture. We argue that climate scientists act as trustees in systems of public reason — balancing expertise with democratic accountability in climate governance. 🌍 👉 doi.org/10.1080/1369...

Climate scientists as trustees in public reason: the legitimacy of political institutions amid non-epistemic values

Addressing global challenges like climate change requires both national action and international collaboration. However, it remains unclear under what conditions international institutions, such as...

Philosophers often claim everything deserves to be questioned, ever question has a place in philosophy. Until you start talking about intimacy and people shy away. Next year, I will start teaching a research master course entitled 'Politics of intimacy'.We will be asking the uncomfortable questions!

One piece of advice for anyone on the #philosophy job market: have a website. It doesn’t have to look great, but people will look it and use it to get a sense of your interests and credibility as a candidate even if it’s not a formal part of the application process. So it needs to exist. #PhilJobs

I'd slightly extend this rule: if the task can actually be achieved using an LLM, this signals that the task in question is unnecessary (looking at you, university administrators).

This seems right to me, & could also be an argument against the tiresome 'great man' theory of history: "Against two-tier philosophy" open.substack.com/pub/helendec... The article on blandness by @axdouglas.bsky.social linked to in the piece is also very interesting.

Fun fact: Since I do not use Spanish in formal contexts anymore (except when I write in Spanish), my default Spanish jargon is my most informal one, which is the kind of working-class slang used in my neighbourhood.

Will I get my PhD withdrawn if I confess I just learnt one cites books by copyright date and not actual release date? PS_ that’d why you should cite my book by 2025!
