Beyond Relativism? Re-engaging Wittgenstein [PDF]
Relativism is the view that there are as many worlds as there are ways of thinking and expressing the worlds that are expressed. That is to say, things are related to the ways in which we express them. Thus philosophers assert that the way we express our

Nb2CBr2 MXene Monolayer as a Novel Material: A First Principle Study
Illustration of the monolayer cell, cell replicated in directions a and b, graph of optical absorption and thermodynamic potentials as a function of temperature. Abstract Niobium‐based MXenes show promising properties and applications, but have not yet been sufficiently investigated, especially with halogen surface terminations. This study investigates

Epistemological Implications of Relativism [PDF]
Relativists about knowledge ascriptions think that whether a particular use of a knowledge-ascribing sentence, e.g., “Keith knows that the bank is open” is true depends on the epistemic standards at play in the assessor’s context—viz., the context in ...

Troubling children's families: who's troubled and why? Approaches to inter-cultural dialogue [PDF]
This article draws on multi-disciplinary perspectives to consider the need and the possibilities for inter-cultural dialogue concerning families that may be seen by some to be ‘troubling’.

This article develops a variational formulation for modeling a silicon semiconductor through a multiwell approach utilizing phosphorus atoms as a dopant substance. The variational formulation here developed may be used to find an optimal phosphorus density distribution concerning an originally silicon density, in order to maximize the electrical ...

Postmodernism is not a Relativism. Communication Practices and Ethical Attitudes in some Postmodern Thinkers [PDF]
The different “postmodern” philosophies that arose from the 1970s to the 1990s have often been considered as a kind of irrationalist-skeptical-relativist “ideology” or assorted amalgam, which in our time would dangerously take over the philosophical ...

Magnetic and Crystal Symmetry Control on Spin Hall Conductivity in Altermagnets
Crystal structures and schematic illustrations of the spin Hall effect (SHE) in altermagnets. High‐symmetry RuO2 exhibits conventional SHE, while tilted RuO2 shows trivial unconventional SHE (USHE) caused by structural tilting. CrSb and MnTe, with reduced magnetic symmetry, display intrinsic USHE arising from symmetry‐driven spin–momentum locking ...

Le voyage de Chevrillon au Maroc : le monde se lit au pluriel
During his trip to Morocco, André Chevrillon experienced alterity, a phase of cultural exchange, characterized by diversity and pluralism. This experience is also a phase of reflection on the Self and the Other.
