My article 'Emotions and their Reasons' is out in Inquiry!🤘

Losses are reason for sadness and injustices are reason for anger..

..but what do we mean when we say there are reasons for emotions?

Are there distinctively affective reasons?

I think so.

This asshole's election is terrible for climate action given the little time we have to act decisively. But we live in a world of Polycentric climate governance and other agents have a duty to pick up the slack. And that includes with Canada. Do not vote Conservative. Please.

New article published in Erkenntnis 😃 As the title says, I argue that emotions represent properties unconsciously. I also discuss which theories are in contradiction with this claim, its links to conscious representation and to unconscious emotions. https://t.co/eb7bze6tFC
