APA 2022 Pacific

This special issue of Philosophical Studies features papers that were originally presented at the Pacific Division Meeting of the American Philosophical Association in Vancouver, BC in April 2022. The conference featured many fine papers on a wide variety of topics. To facilitate selection of papers for this volume, the Program Chair of the conference in Vancouver invited members of the program committee to identify papers they thought were especially interesting and worthy of consideration for this special volume. Some papers proposed by the program committee had already been submitted to other journals and could not be considered for inclusion in this volume. The papers gathered in this special issue address diverse issues and the issue is not animated by a single philosophical theme. Instead, it provides a sample of the outstanding research that is routinely presented at meetings of the American Philosophical Association. All the papers have been subject to blind peer review.
