Miranda Fricker on blame is really good, especially her reading of Strawson’s “Freedom and Resentment” as metaphilosophy rather than a kind of resigned naturalism about our propensity to blame. #philsky

Hi, everyone! I'm Alejandro Fábregas-Tejeda. I just handed in my PhD dissertation at Ruhr University Bochum on the organism-environment relationship from an iHPS approach. I mainly do research in #philbio & #histbio, but I'm also interested in metaphilosophy & philosophy of history #PhilSci #HistSci
