Philosophy Talk: Trump and Truth
The Department of Philosophy is hosting a Philosophy Talk, open to all, called "Trump and Truth" by Dr. Daniel Harris.
Donald Trump is surely a post-truth President. However, rather than abandoning truth altogether, Trumps seeks to alter our sense of which sources of knowledge are to be trusted and so of what passes for true. To call mainstream media 鈥渇ake news鈥�, for instance, is to rely on the possibility of real, true news. Trump does not malign truth so much as our usual practices of building consensus around what counts as true.
