Alexander Sandgren (ANU): Witches and Intentional Identity
There is intentional identity when attitudes have a common focus, whether or not there is an object at that focus. For instance, there is intentional identity when two beliefs are directed at London and when two beliefs are directed at the same witch. Theories of intentional identity are accounts of when and why intentional attitudes have a common focus in this sense. In this talk I will explain why we should care about intentional identity, present my own theory of intentional identity, and argue that my theory has some major advantages over its principal rivals.
