Patchworks of Laws and Partial Structuresd with an evaluation of this alternative view as with an account of scientific reasoning with patchworks of laws. Such an account will be given using a modular semantics for axiomatic theories. This semantics, in turn, draws on the framework of partial structures by da Costa and French and a few eleConsole 发表于 2025-3-28 22:26:33
Social Epistemology, Debate Dynamics, and Truth Approximationssue by focusing on the “theory of dialectical structures” developed by Gregor Betz (., Springer, 2013). I link this theory to accounts of truth approximation in the philosophy of science, and explore their formal and conceptual relationships. I then argue that the notion of verisimilitude or truthl建筑师 发表于 2025-3-29 01:53:07
Wise Crowds, Clever Meta-Inductivistser words, communication and imitation among members of a group may have the negative effect of decreasing the aggregate wisdom of the group. In contrast, it is demonstrable that certain meta-inductive methods provide optimal means for predicting unknown events. Such meta-inductive methods are essent内向者 发表于 2025-3-29 03:43:37

Why the Realist-Instrumentalist Debate About Rational Choice Rests on a Mistakel choice theories. Whilst realists argue that the rationality assumption is an empirical claim which describes real processes that cause individual action, instrumentalists maintain that it amounts to nothing more than an analytically set axiom or ‘as if’ hypothesis which helps in the generation of特别容易碎 发表于 2025-3-29 12:06:41
Funding Science by Lotteryternative of funding science by lottery, and more generally the possible introduction of a formal random element in the funding process. At first it may seem that randomness will lower expected efficiency, by allocating funds to less meritorious projects. By focusing on the notion that we want funde喃喃而言 发表于 2025-3-29 16:59:15
Researchers Building Nations: Under What Conditions Can Overtly Political Research Be Objective?ses of objectivity, . and . that do not require value-freedom. I use each of these to assess a young, strongly value-laden and overtly political discipline: indigenous studies. It has been criticised as relativistic and essentialistic, and in consequence, as not objective in the detached sense of oblegacy 发表于 2025-3-29 21:57:40
Against the Agnosticism-Argument for Value-Freedomot (always) sufficient to determine theory choice, wherefore other values came to bear on such choices. A common strategy against such criticisms can be found in what I call the agnosticism-argument. It claims that, first, not all theory assessment is permanently underdetermined. Second, in cases wh横条 发表于 2025-3-30 02:59:47

Reconstituting Phenomenahe “bigger picture.” This paper will distinguish between two modes of reconstituting phenomena: one moving down to a level of greater decomposition (toward organizational parts of the original phenomenon), and one moving up to a level of greater abstraction (toward different differences regarding th
