Experts on Tap Speaker Series: Bert Baumgaertner
Bert Baumgaertner’s talk is entitled, “Disagreement: Perspectives from Philosophy to the Real World.” Philosophers study how experts can rationally disagree using idealized cases, such as two economists or two weather forecasters with the exact same evidence and reasoning abilities. But in most real world cases, we aren’t sure whether the evidence is the same or if both parties have equal expertise. This talk will examine how well philosophical insights carry over from the idealized cases to real-world cases.
