Here are two recent papers:

• "Opposing Skepticism Disjunctively" is a shorter version of "Disjunctivism and Anti-Skepticism," published in Philosophical Issues, 2007. The paper argues that disjunctivism about perceptual experience has no overall assets and some overall liabilities as a response to external world skepticism.
• "Peerage" is a draft of a paper about rational disagreement
