 “Anti-recognitionalist” compatibilism can be developed in a number of ways. We have already seen some precedent in Burge vis-à-vis self-verifying judgments (section  3.1).  For these judgments do not represent a “cognitive achievement” (in the words of Boghossian 1989); they are automatically self-verifying, whether the subject invests any epistemic effort in them or not. Anti-recognitionalism has also arisen in W.’s notion of “default” entitlement (from section  2.3).  For W., a subject does not need a tight philosophical argument to be entitled to her self-attributions; such entitlement is granted automatically (unless there is special reason to withhold it).
