Introduction
Calls for change are often met with resistance, especially by those heavily invested in the orthodox. It is perhaps unsurprising, then, that experimental philosophy has not been universally well received.
Philosophers invested in more traditional ways of thinking about philosophy and philosophical methodology have not gone quietly into that good night, but instead have attempted to mount a number of defenses of the tradition. In this chapter, we will focus on three of the more common strategies employed by philosophers in defense of the tradition. (There are other ways of defending the tradition, including challenging experimental philosophy on methodological grounds. We will examine methodological challenges in the epilogue.) These strategies take aim at the work done by experimental philosophers, and involve arguing that this work is irrelevant either because it focuses on the wrong kinds of philosophical intuitions or because it focuses too much on philosophical intuitions.size=5 color=black face=Arial>2.
