During the last decade, a dingo control program was implemented in the Granite Belt region to reduce loss of lambs. This resulted in an increase in the population of wallabies and feral cats, and a decrease in the population of rat species. The program also resulted in a loss of native plant species. With this decrease in plant species, the population of herbivore species decreased. A decision was made to stop the control program and erect dingo fencing around native parks to allow numbers to recover. Which of the following scenarios presents the most likely consequences of stopping the dingo control program? (A) dingo population increased, wallaby population decreased, flora unaffected (B) dingo population decreased, wallaby population decreased, flora unaffected (C) dingo population increased, wallaby population unaffected, flora unaffected (D) wallaby population decreased, flora increased, insects and bird populations increased

Socrates often asks questions of the form "What is X?". What kind of answer is he looking for? What are some kinds of (seemingly plausible) answers that he rejects? Why does he reject them? What, in general, are the requirements for "Socratic definition"?

2. What is a Socratic definition? In what ways do Socrates' interlocutors go wrong (according to Socrates) in trying to provide such definitions? What are the requirements for a correct definition? Give examples to illustrate your points.

3. A recent critic bemoans what he calls "the Socratic fallacy," namely, the doctrine that one cannot recognize instances to which some general term applies unless one knows, and can give, the definition of that term. What reasons might one give for supposing that this is a Socratic doctrine? Is it?

4. A recent critic bemoans what he calls "the Socratic fallacy," namely, the doctrine that one cannot recognize instances to which some general term applies unless one knows, and can give, the definition of that term. Is this is a Socratic doctrine? Is it a fallacy? Defend your answer.

5. What is Plato's doctrine of Recollection? How does he try (in the Meno) to establish the doctrine? How successful is he in establishing it?

6. What is "Meno's paradox" (Meno 80d-e)? Is it a genuine paradox? Expound and evaluate Socrates' response to it.

7. What is "Meno's paradox" (Meno 80d-e) supposed to prove? Does it succeed in proving its conclusion? Expound and evaluate Socrates' response to it.

8. What is "Meno's paradox" (Meno 80d-e)? Is it a genuine paradox (i.e., does it succeed in establishing an apparently untenable conclusion)? Expound and evaluate Socrates' response to it.

9. What is "Meno's paradox" (Meno 80d-e)? What conclusion does it purport to establish? Does it succeed? If not, why not? Expound and evaluate Socrates' response to it. 10. In the Phaedo (100ff), Plato treats the forms as "causes" i.e., things we appeal to in giving explanations of a certain sort. Aristotle, in the Physics (Bk.II, Ch.3) argues that there are four senses of "cause". In which of Aristotle's four senses are Plato's Forms "causes"? (Cf. Aristotle's claim, in the Metaphysics, Bk. I, Ch. 9, that in the Phaedo Forms are said to be causes of both being and becoming.) Why are the Forms, from Aristotle's point of view, defective as the sorts of "causes" he interprets them as being?

11. Plato offers the Theory of Forms as a solution to a number of different philosophical problems. What are those problems? How is the theory supposed to solve them? (E.g.,r
