Accounting classics: class in political and social philosophy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Critical Accounting, 2010
"Seeing is believing"?; "I'm from Missouri, show me"; "The proof of the pudding is in the eating"; Classification: How we make sense of the World.

An Enduring Philosophical Agenda. Worldview Construction as a Philosophical Method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Is there something like a philosophical method? It seems that there are as many methods as there are philosophies. A method is any procedure employed to attain a certain end. So, before going to a method, we have to ask: what is the aim of philosophy? At

Exponentially Modified QCD Coupling

open access: yes, 2007
We present a specific class of models for an infrared-finite analytic QCD coupling, such that at large space-like energy scales the coupling differs from the perturbative one by less than any inverse power of the energy scale. This condition is motivated

Against the ‘no-go’ philosophy of quantum mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In the area of the foundations of quantum mechanics a true industry appears to have developed in the last decades, with the aim of proving as many results as possible concerning what there cannot be in the quantum realm. In principle, the significance of

Beyond the Physics of Logic: Aspects of Transcendental Materialism or URAM in a Modern View [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2001
It has been shown at other occasions that recent results of modern physics can be used to shed some more light onto the foundations of the world, provided the actual task of philosophy is being re-interpreted in terms of a theory which is following up the results of science rather than laying the grounds for the latter, contrary to what the original ...

Bell's Theorem, Quantum Probabilities, and Superdeterminism [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
In this short survey article, I discuss Bell's theorem and some strategies that attempt to avoid the conclusion of non-locality. I focus on two that intersect with the philosophy of probability: (1) quantum probabilities and (2) superdeterminism. The issues they raised not only apply to a wide class of no-go theorems about quantum mechanics but are ...

Diagonalization and representation results for nonpositive sesquilinear form measures

open access: yes, 2007
We study decompositions of operator measures and more general sesquilinear form measures $E$ into linear combinations of positive parts, and their diagonal vector expansions.
