SUMMARY:Interdependence as Non-Obstruction
DESCRIPTION:Philosophy Department Colloquium\nWho: Nicholaos Jones\, Professor of Philosophy at University of Alabama\nWhen: Thursday\, March 12th\, 4:00-5:30pm\nWhere: Virtue Room\, the Maples \nAbstract: Are all things interdependent? I examine two approaches to an affirmative answer. The first derives interdependence from a kind of cosmic organicism. I trace some brief history for this approach\, especially in relation to modern interpretations of Huayan Buddhism and the metaphor of Indra’s net. I also critique the approach\, on both philosophical and moral grounds. I introduce a second approach\, which derives interdependence from a kind of cosmic laissez-fairism. I argue that this second approach is more plausible than the first.
