SUMMARY:Mario Biagioli\, "From Anti Science to Science Mimicry: Inventing Ethics in Trump's EPA."
DESCRIPTION:October 18\, 5 pm Mario Biagioli (UCLA Law and Information Studies) \n(please note the later time) \nThis paper moves from the recent findings of agnotologists (like the book Merchants of Doubt) about the post-WWII strategy by tobacco and oil companies to cast doubt about the scientific evidence concerning\, respectively\, the risks of tobacco smoking and the existence of global warming. I argue that a new chapter of that strategy book was recently articulated in Trump’s EPA. This is a strategy that does not hinge on the production of doubt about the content of scientific knowledge but rather targets and transforms some of the key ethical norms of science (openness\, transparency\, and impartiality)\, effectively turning them against themselves. \n  \nFor remote participants: \nPlease click here to register and receive a Zoom link \n  \nFor those joining us on campus\, RSVP and symptom monitoring is required. Please be prepared to show your clearance status when entering the seminar room. \nPlease RSVP using this form if you will be attending in person \n  \nFor visitors coming from other institutions\, please remember that UCLA has a vaccine mandate and that everyone coming to campus needs to fill out the daily symptom monitoring form which can be found here: \nhttps://uclasurveys.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3qRLtouCYKzBbH7
