Recent accounts of actual causation are stated in terms of extended causal models. These extended causal models contain two elements representing two seemingly distinct modalities. The first element a...
Synthetic Modeling and Mechanistic Account:Material Recombination and Beyond
Dynamic mechanistic explanations mathematical models synthetic models genetic circuits noise modularity integration
2016/5/30
Recently, Bechtel and Abrahamsen have argued that mathematical models study the dynamics of mechanisms by recomposing the components and their operations into an appropriately organized system. We wil...
Causal explanation beyond the gene: manipulation and causality in epigenetics
causation explanation intervention epigenetics methodology observational studies causalidad explicación intervención epigenética metodología estudios observacionales
2016/5/27
This paper deals with the interrelationship between causal explanation and methodology in a relatively young discipline in biology: epigenetics. Based on cases from molecular and ecological epigenetic...
Values in Science beyond Underdetermination and Inductive Risk
values in science science and values underdetermination inductive risk
2016/5/27
The thesis that the practice and evaluation of science requires social value-judgment, that good science is not value-free or value-neutral but value-laden, has been gaining acceptance among philosoph...

Beyond Deconstruction
2009/12/3
Deconstruction is usually and rightly linked to the philosophical and literary writings
of Jacques Derrida and Paul de Man. These writings have come under sharp attack in
recent years. I would refer...
Making Sense of Modeling: Beyond Representation
models modeling use epistemic value fluid mechanics
2009/9/17
It has recently been aptly emphasized that how models are used is essential to what scientific models are. But the explanations of why and how a model is used or why a model is scientifically valuable...
For many, liberal democracy is in a state of crisis (most prominently, see the groundbreaking works of Hardt and Negri 2001, 2005; see also Agamben, Badiou). Related to this crisis - which is, more br...
Justifying Definitions in Mathematics—Going Beyond Lakatos
definitions in mathematics justification of definitions Lakatos mathematical reasoning
2009/4/27
This paper addresses the actual practice of justifying definitions in mathematics. First, I introduce the main account of this issue, namely Lakatos's proof-generated definitions. Based on a case stud...
Coherence, Consistency, and Cohesion: Clade Selection in Okasha and Beyond.
Cohesion Consistency Coherence
2008/4/22
Samir Okasha argues that clade selection is an incoherent concept, because the relation that constitutes clades is such that it renders parent-offspring (reproduction) relations between clades impossi...
Social epistemology of scientific inquiry: beyond historical vs. philosophical case studies
social epistemology scientific objectivity
2008/4/22
In this paper, I propose a new way to integrate historical accounts of social interaction in scientific practice with philosophical examination of scientific knowledge. The relation between descriptiv...
Formal Axiomatic method as exemplified in Hilbert’s Grundlagen der Geometrie is based on a
structuralist vision of mathematics and science according to which theories and objects of these
theories a...
Modelling Molecules: Beyond the Epistemic-Pragmatic Dichotomy
models explanation kinetic theory
2008/4/15
I argue that scientific explanation has a pragmatic dimension that is epistemically relevant. Philosophers with an objectivist approach to scientific explanation (e.g. Hempel, Trout) hold that the pra...
Complementarity and Uncertainty in Mach-Zehnder Interferometry and beyond
Complementarity principle uncertainty principle joint measurement
2008/4/10
A coherent account of the connections and contrasts between the principles of complementarity and uncertainty is developed starting from a survey of the various formalizations of these principles. The...
Bosonization and Iterative Relations Beyond Field Theories
proton electron asymmetry auto-renormalization
2008/4/10
Solitons can be well described by the Lagrange formalism of
effective field theories. But usually mass and coupling constants constitute phenomenological dimensions without any relation to the topolo...
Beyond Theoretical Reduction and Layer-Cake Antireduction: How DNA Retooled Genetics and Transformed Biological Practice
reduction reductionism theoretical reduction
2008/4/10
Watson and Crick’s discovery of the structure of DNA led to developments that transformed many biological sciences. But what were the relevant developments and how did they transform biology? Much of ...
