Definite Descriptions and the Gettier Example

This paper challenges the first Gettier counterexample to the tripartite account of knowledge. Noting that 'the man who will get the job' is a description and invoking Donnellan's distinction between their 'referential' and 'attributive' uses, I argue that Smith does not actually believe that the man who will get the job has ten coins in his pocket. Smith's ignorance about who will get the job shows that the belief cannot be understood referentially, his ignorance of the coins in his pocket shows that it cannot be understood attributively. An explanation for why Smith appeared to have justified true belief is given by distinguishing between 'belief' and 'belief in truth'. Smith believes the sentence 'the man who will get the job has ten coins in his pocket' to be true (he mistakenly believes that Jones will get the job, of whom he knows that he has ten coins in his pocket) (hence his 'belief'), the sentence is true (hence 'truth'), and he has sufficient reason to assent to it (hence his 'justification'). But he does not believe the proposition expressed. Hence he does not know it eithe

Mexico : the political consequences of economic restructuring

Includes bibliographical references.The 1988 Mexican elections appeared to signal a transition in Mexican politics away from one party rule and toward and open system. This thesis attempts to identify the underlying economic causes of this trend and its likely future course. To analyze Mexican politics, the research included books with background information and contemporary periodical articles to ensure timeliness. The thesis is organized chronologically beginning in the 1970’s and devotes considerable space to the emerging role of opposition groups and the likely course of future events. It was discovered that the opening of the political system is tied to two major variables—economic policy and the emerging need for political alternatives. These two factors coincide to reduce the legitimacy of the ruling party and government. As a result, the government has been forced to open the system to retain some credibility. The conclusion attempts to predict the future course of events. Mexico is heading toward an open political system, but will arrive there only after further economic pains and possibly some social unrest. The future of the economic and political system are much brighter than at any time in the past twenty years.B.S. (Bachelor of Science
