Avner Baz on the ‘Point’ of a Question
Inquiry: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Philosophy 58 (7):875-894 (2015)
Abstract
Avner Baz claims that questions philosophers ask about hypothetical cases lack the kind of ‘point’ possessed by ‘everyday’ questions. He concludes from this that there is something wrong with the philosophical practice of asking questions about hypothetical cases. This paper defends the practice from Baz’s criticism.Author's Profile
