Leibniz On Causation
28. December 2009 by Raleigh Miller.
I’ve just completed and submitted a paper on Leibniz’s view of intrasubstantial monadic causation. The paper was an evaluation of the “monadic states as formal and final causes of their subsequent states” model. It can be found with the rest of my papers.

Universalism and Reasons
11. December 2009 by Nathan.
This post is going to be pretty inchoate; it’s just going to be me putting down some thoughts I’ve been having on how to make sense of the claim that morality is universal.

“Reasons and Reason” Final Draft Submitted
9. December 2009 by Raleigh Miller.
I’ve submitted my final draft for Dr. Svavarsdottir’s seminar on reasons for action. The final(ish) draft can be found on the “Raleigh’s stuff” page.It’s not my best paper, but it’s my first as a PhD student; that’s rather exciting I think.My thanks to Dan Issler, Ben Sheredos, Paul Pfeilscheifter, Dan Burnston and Justin Bernstein. Their comments were incisive and insightful; I was only able to improve the paper so much, and I think some of their most penetrating concerns remain concerning, but the paper is certainly far better than it was for their contribution.
