Apparent Paradoxes Are Paradoxes and the Problem of Change Is an Apparent Paradox

open access: yesPacific Philosophical Quarterly, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we argue that, under certain conditions, if something is, apparently, a paradox, then it is a paradox. We then apply this claim to a recent discussion on the so‐called “Problem of Change.” Throughout the history of Philosophy, many authors have viewed change as a paradoxical phenomenon. More recently, some have defended that the

Avicenna on the PSR and Causal Necessity in the Natural World

open access: yesTheoria, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Avicenna's account of causal necessity in the natural world is a key part of his metaphysical system and it is also historically significant. Yet, there is little scholarly discussion of the philosophical basis of his view. This is surprising not only because the topic is important, but also because the view is challenging to interpret ...

Modal Logic and Modal Metaphysics: An Avicennian Division of Labour

open access: yesTheoria, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper argues that Avicenna was both a necessitarian and a realist about contingency. The two aspects of his modal metaphysics are reconciled by arguing that Avicenna's modal metaphysics is founded on realism about essences: strictly speaking, an individual has no contingent properties, but a modal distinction can be made between the ...

The neoliberal drive to produce market‐like outcomes has created the conditions for managerialism to flourish, with centralised accountability and control mechanisms justified

Reimagining Phase Diagrams and Phase Formation Through Graph Theory

open access: yesAdvanced Computing, Volume 1, Issue 1, December 2026.
Utilization of traditional equilibrium phase landscape limits interpretation of realistic metal processing conditions. Constraints on dimensionality confine nonequilibrium representation to a 2‐dimensional (2D) phase landscape. Utilization of graph theory, grounded in statistical thermodynamics, enables the reconstruction of phase diagrams with ...

Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 6, Page 2920-2942, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.
