Abstract:
This chapter explores the vagueness inherent in the conceptual structure of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Although psychopathologists have developed precise diagnostic criteria for PTSD, concepts such as traumatic, severe, and impaired generate borderline cases. As in the sorites paradox, where difficult to distinguish but successively smaller piles of sand may be called heaps, in PTSD similar but successively milder traumatic events may produce PTSD symptoms. The vagueness that bedevils PTSD is of two sorts: the degree vagueness manifested in gradual transitions between subtraumatic and traumatic stressors; and vagueness between normal and abnormal reactions. Also discussed here is an alternative causal systems approach in which the symptoms of PTSD are causally related parts of PTSD. Such mereological structures produce combinatorial vagueness in which there are borderline cases between PTSD and other psychiatric syndromes.

Abstract:
Given that a single cent seemingly cannot make the difference between being rich and not rich, the sorites paradox purports to show that either everyone is rich or no one is. In this chapter, the logical principles needed to derive the sorites paradox are clarified. Some views solve the sorites paradox by weakening those logical principles. Often the blame is placed on the law of excluded middle. Although the law of excluded middle has some contentious instances, it is argued that the sorites paradox can be derived without them, and that the violence to ordinary reasoning is more far-reaching than is sometimes recognized. Others accept the conclusion that everyone is rich or no one is. Two versions of these views, a semantic version and radical version, are distinguished and it is argued that they either are untenable, or do not solve the original, non-semantic, version of the sorites paradox.

Abstract:
This chapter shows that the method that Peter Unger (1979, 1980) has developed for dealing with the sorites paradox can, and perhaps should, be extended and applied to the semantic paradoxes—specifically, to Grelling’s paradox and to the liar paradox. After carefully explicating Unger’s earlier method for treating the sorites, the chapter expands on a very brief, compact argument in which he (1979) contends that, in light of certain putatively paradoxical semantic expressions, which are not obviously soritical, there are no expressions and, hence, no languages. The concluding section of the chapter identifies some important similarities between the liar paradox and the sorites.

Full text
Abstract:
Chapter 1 argued against nihilist, universalist, and non-classical approaches to vagueness, leaving only the view that sorites sequences have cutoff points left. However, many questions about the nature of vagueness were still left open. In this chapter, two widely discussed classical views—supervaluationism and epistemicism—are introduced, and their relation to some open questions in the philosophy of vagueness is explained. It is then argued that some of these disputes are not as substantive as they have sometimes been taken to be, and that the differences between supervaluationism and epistemicism are not as striking as they first appear.

This Festschrift volume contains a series of specially commissioned papers by leading philosophers on themes from the philosophy of Crispin Wright and a previously unpublished paper by George Boolos, together with a substantial set of replies by Wright. Section I consists of five essays on Wright’s Neo-Fregean approach in the philosophy of mathematics, Section II consists of two essays on Wright’s work on vagueness, intuitionism and the Sorites Paradox, Section III contains two essays on logical revisionism, and Section IV consists of a single essay on the epistemology of metaphysical possibility. The volume also contains a full bibliography of Wright’s philosophical publications.

Abstract:
The book is about the problem of vagueness. It begins by discussing some of the existing views on vagueness and then explains why they have not been thought to be satisfactory. It then outlines a new account of vagueness, based on the general idea that vagueness is a global rather than a local phenomenon. In other words, the vagueness of an expression or object is not an intrinsic feature of the object or an expression but a matter of how it relates to other objects and expression. The development of this idea leads to a new semantics and logic for vagueness. The semantics and logic are then applied to a number of issues, including the sorites paradox, the transparency or luminosity of mental states, and personal identity. It is shown that the view allows one to hew to a much more intuitive position on these various issues.

Full text
Abstract:
The principle that every statement is bivalent (i.e. either true or false) has been a bone of philosophical contention for centuries, for an apparently powerful argument for it (due to Aristotle) sits alongside apparently convincing counterexamples to it. This chapter analyzes Aristotle’s argument, then, in the light of this analysis, examines three sorts of problem case for bivalence. Future contingents, it is contended, are bivalent. Certain statements of higher set theory, by contrast, are not. Pace the intuitionists, though, this is not because excluded middle does not apply to such statements, but because they are not determinate. Vague statements too are not bivalent, in this case because the law of proof by cases does not apply. The chapter goes on to show how this opens the way to a solution to the ancient paradox of the heap (or Sorites) that draws on quantum logic.

Wright, Crispin. The Riddle of Vagueness. Oxford University Press, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780199277339.001.0001.

Full text
Abstract:
This anthology includes fourteen of Crispin Wrights’s highly influential essays on the phenomenon of vagueness in natural language, collectively representing almost half a century of cutting-edge systematic research. Key issues addressed include whether or under what assumptions vague expressions’ apparent tolerance of marginal changes in things to which they apply indicates that they are governed by inconsistent semantic rules, the varieties of Sorites paradox and the roots of the plausibility of their respective major premises, what it is for something to be a borderline case of a vague expression, whether vagueness should be viewed as fundamentally a semantic or an epistemic phenomenon, whether there is ‘higher-order’ vagueness, and what should be the appropriate logic for vague statements. The essays reprinted here jointly document the development of a distinctively original treatment of the philosophy and logic of vagueness, broadly analogous to the intuitionistic philosophy and logic for pure mathematics. Richard Kimberly Heck contributes an extended introductory essay, providing both an insightful critical overview of the development of the distinctive elements of Wright’s thought about vagueness, and indeed an invaluable advanced introduction to the topic.
