This research project is on regress arguments in philosophy. The goal of the project is three-fold: (1) to collect regress arguments from many philosophical debates, (2) to investigate what they have in common, viz. set up argument schemas of which they can be an instance, and (3) to provide guidelines for using and evaluating them.
