Lukács' Critical Ontology and Critical Realism

Journal of Critical Realism, 2005
This paper proposes that we read a late work of Georg Lukacs, The Ontology of Social Being, as an indispensable contribution to ontological investigation in general and particularly to the understanding of social reality. As the ontology of Lukacs tends not to be familiar even to those who have (properly) foregrounded ontological issues in recent ...

An ontological approach to simulate critical infrastructures

Journal of Computational Science, 2010
Abstract This paper presents a Knowledge Base System (KBS) as a key component of a federated simulation framework aimed at investigating the dependencies among Critical Infrastructures (CIs). The KBS, based on the ontological formalism, represents the properties and the relations of each simulation domain and the dependency relations among different ...

Critical rationalism and engineering: ontology

Synthese, 2014
entities and are judged by dierent criteria. In this paper I use Popper’s three worlds ontological framework to propose a model of engineering theories, and provide an abstract logical view of engineering theories analogous to the deductive-nomological view of scientic theories.

Expanding ‘criticality’ in the context of critical ontology and bricolage

Korean Association for Qualitative Inquiry, 2023
The purpose of this study is to offer investigate conceptual foundations for critical research, so called, ‘critical ontology’ and ‘bricolage’ research activities, in the perspectives of a critical applied linguist. The critique, as reinterpreted as the arts of existence or critical ontology of ourselves, is placed in the on-going inquiry for the ...

Toward a critical social ontology

The Philosophical Forum, 2023
AbstractI argue in this paper for a critical social ontology, or an approach to theorizing social reality and social institutions that is more than descriptive of social reality, but is also able to provide practical reasoning with an ontological dimension for judgment.

Ontological Framework to Model Critical Infrastructures and their Interdependencies

2010 Complexity in Engineering, 2010
This paper presents a Knowledge Base System (KBS) as a key component of a federated simulation framework which allows the investigation of (inter)dependencies among Critical Infrastructures (CIs). The KBS supports the federated simulation framework by using the ontological formalism to represent specific CI domains and their dependencies.

Extracting a justification for OWL ontologies by critical axioms

Frontiers of Computer Science, 2020
Extracting justifications for web ontology language (OWL) ontologies is an important mission in ontology engineering. In this paper, we focus on black-box techniques which are based on ontology reasoners. Through creating a recursive expansion procedure, all elements which are called critical axioms in the justification are explored one by one. In this

Ontology and Critical Philosophy

2013
A recent essay by Peter van Inwagen opens with the observation that ’Ontology is a very old subject, but “ontology” is a relatively new word’ (van Inwagen 2009: 472). Indeed, as a topic warranting systematic study, the subject is usually traced back to Aristotle or Parmenides, while the word, in its Latin form ‘ontologia’, is not known to have appeared
