Grounding objectivity
This paper articulates a grounding-based criterion for distinguishing between the objective and the subjective in response to some arguments made by Jessica Leech in Thinking of Necessity (2023). It claims that this criterion fares better than Leech's own proposal in that it is likely to be more widely acceptable, and is also able to do the philosophical work that Leech requires.
