What is philosophy as critical thinking? What is the proper focus of philosophical, that is, critical inquiry?
Present the problem of the criterion. According to Chisholm, there are three ways of responding to this
problem. What are they? Discuss, briefly, Chisholm’s preferred way of dealing with the problem. In the end,
does Chisholm regard his own solution to the problem of the criterion as satisfactory? Explain why he does or
does not. What is analysis? What is a concept? Present what Ackerman calls the second paradox of analysis.
How does she propose to resolve this paradox? Present the problem of material constitution. Discuss the
problem in terms of Lumpl and Goliath, a specific version of the problem. (Make clear what is special about this
version.) What do you think is the most plausible solution to the problem of material constitution? Succinctly
defend your answer. In what sense are the problems and paradox under discussion here philosophical?
Propose some conditions under which it might be appropriate for philosophical inquiry with respect to some
subject matter to end.
