CONCEPTUAL RELATIVITY AND STRUCTURES OF EXPLANATION

2008
Hilary Putnam’s doctrine of conceptual relativity sustains that there are many different incompatible, yet equivalent, descriptions of what have to be considered “the same” phenomena. This fact is reason to justify the idea that metaphysical realism is wrong and that a better general view of reality should be something like a “pragmatic realism ...

Conceptual design for a mercury relativity satellite

Advances in Space Research, 1989
It was shown earlier that 1 x 10 to the -14th Doppler data and 3 cm accuracy range measurements to a small Mercury Relativity Satellite in a polar orbit with four-hour period can give high-accuracy tests of gravitational theory. A particular conceptual design has been developed for such a satellite, which would take less than 10 percent of the approach

2008
The main goal of this paper will be to analyze the relationship between the phenomenon of conceptual relativity and the speaking-sensitive semantics. My paper will be divided into three parts. In the first part I will present Putnam’s the phenomenon of conceptual relativity, in the second part I will exhibit the main ideas that characterize the ...
