This volume provides a framework for approaching and understanding
mental normativity. It presents cutting-edge research on the ethics
of belief as well as innovative research beyond the normativity of
belief-and towards an ethics of mind. By moving beyond traditional
issues of epistemology the contributors discuss the most current
ideas revolving around rationality, responsibility, and
normativity. The book's chapters are divided into two main parts.
Part I discusses contemporary issues surrounding the normativity of
belief. The essays here cover topics such as control over belief
and its implication for the ethics of belief, the role of the
epistemic community for the possibility of epistemic normativity,
responsibility for believing, doxastic partiality in friendship,
the structure and content of epistemic norms, and the norms for
suspension of judgment. In Part II the focus shifts from the
practical dimensions of belief to the normativity and rationality
of other mental states-especially blame, passing thoughts,
fantasies, decisions, and emotions. These essays illustrate how we
might approach an ethics of mind by focusing not only on belief,
but also more generally on debates about responsibility and
rationality, as well as on normative questions concerning other
mental states or attitudes. The Ethics of Belief and Beyond paves
the way towards an ethics of mind by building on and contributing
to recent philosophical discussions in the ethics of belief and the
normativity of other mental phenomena. It will be of interest to
upper-level students and researchers working in epistemology,
ethics, philosophy of action, philosophy of mind, and moral
psychology.
