Thinking Care Through Intersectionality: Toward a Critical Epistemology of Care in Nursing Sciences. [PDF]
Nurs InqABSTRACT Despite their proclaimed universality, healthcare systems produce systematic inequities shaped by intersecting axes of power, a paradox that intersectionality is uniquely positioned to address. This philosophical‑reflexive inquiry proposes repositioning intersectionality within nursing sciences not merely as an analytical framework but as the ...

Mechanizing the metatheory of LF [PDF]
ACM Transactions on Computational Logic, 2008 LF is a dependent type theory in which many other formal systems can be conveniently embedded. However, correct use of LF relies on nontrivial metatheoretic developments such as proofs of correctness of decision procedures for LF's judgments. Although detailed informal proofs of these properties have been published, they have not been formally verified

Against Classical Paraconsistent Metatheory [PDF]
, 2023 There was a time when 'logic' just meant classical logic. The climate is slowly changing and non-classical logic cannot be dismissed off-hand. However, a metatheory used to study the properties of non-classical logic is often classical. In this paper, we

Mechanizing the Metatheory of Sledgehammer [PDF]
, 2013 This paper presents an Isabelle/HOL formalization of recent research in automated reasoning: efficient encodings of sorts in unsorted first-order logic, as implemented in Isabelle’s Sledgehammer proof tool. The formalization provides the general-purpose machinery to reason about formulas and models, emulating the theory of institutions. Quantifiers are
