Tre osservazioni su diez tesis acerca de la coherencia en el Derecho
2021
El artículo está dedicado a tres observaciones críticas sobre la concepción de la coherencia defendida por Amaya. Estas observaciones se refieren a: a) la supuesta incompatibilidad entre la coherencia y la concepción instrumental de la razón práctica; b) la aspiración a la best explanation y, finalmente, c) al vínculo entre la coherencia y la responsabilidad epistémica.
Our Progress Towards Virtue
2015
This chapter is about how we can improve our rational abilities, i.e. make progress towards virtue. I first show that, according to Chrysippus, the natural properties of children are usually corrupted in three ways when they grow up and that adults therefore can make progress only by solving their inner conflicts, becoming more steadfast in their practical reasoning, and improving their self-understanding. So I argue that the main remedy against corruption is to study philosophy. I detail how we can acquire a better self-understanding by studying physics and how we can cure the mind of its inconsistencies by studying logic. I also argue that ethics prepares the mind for an active life in wh…

True Exceptions:Defeasibility and Particularism
2012
Sometimes, kinds of cases which do in fact fall under the antecedent of a conditional norm are reckoned recalcitrant. I.e., although they fall under the antecedent of the norm we do not wish to allow the consequence to follow. In such cases, we sometimes say that we are abandoning, or discarding, the norm. We concede, that is, that the alleged norm was wrong (or, if you wish, that it was no norm at all). At other times, however, it is claimed that the norm is a defeasible one. Granted, the case at hand is one of those in which the norm is defeated; but this, it is implied, does not amount to a wholesale abandonment of the norm itself. Being defeasible, the norm somehow survives the impact o…
Can Artificial Intelligence Interprete Legal Norms? A Problem of Practical Reason
2021
La formalización del razonamiento jurídico y, específicamente, de la interpretación es un viejo sueño de nuestra cultura. Hoy, la Inteligencia Artificial parece lista para cumplir esa tarea. Teóricos computacionales y lógicos están desarrollando herramientas técnicas para estructurar modelos formales de interpretación jurídica útiles para la Inteligencia Artificial. Sin embargo, estos esfuerzos han conseguido sólo formalizaciones abstractas, que no son capaces de resolver cuestiones materiales sobre la respuesta correcta ante un caso nuevo. Los algoritmos no pueden descubrir, ni evaluar, problemas humanos sin la ayuda de programadores; no pueden decidir entre hipótesis interpretativas alter…
La teoria del diritto come pratica sociale e la coercizione
2020
Poiche non si puo trattare del posto che la coercizione ha nel concetto di diritto senza far riferimento ad una specifica teoria del diritto, il paper ricostruisce le linee generali della teoria del diritto come pratica sociale, focalizzando in particolare l’obiettivo del diritto di custodire l’agency dei consociati per contrastare l’uso arbitrario del potere. Nella seconda parte si affronta dal punto di vista del diritto come pratica sociale il tema generale della coercizione giuridica e ci si chiede soprattutto se l’uso giuridico della forza non sia anch’esso nella sostanza una forma di potere che contraddice il fine generale della custodia dell’agency.
