McDowell and Sellars on Objective Purport

European Journal of Philosophy, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 313-332, March 2026.
Abstract John McDowell has criticized Wilfrid Sellars on several occasions and over a number of years for his ‘non‐relational’ account of intentionality. This account is, according to McDowell, at least partly responsible for a ‘blind spot’ in Sellars's thinking: Sellars, allegedly, fails to see how objects or states of affairs in the external world ...

Educational Theory, Volume 76, Issue 1, Page 157-163, February 2026.

Model‐Based Semantics: Doing Without Meaning Constitution

Metaphilosophy, Volume 57, Issue 1-2, Page 103-118, January 2026.
Abstract This paper introduces a model‐based account of meaning, arguing that meaning properties reside in models rather than in the external world. Building on this view, it explores how such an instrumentalist framework can engage critically with various concerns raised by Wittgenstein, Quine, and Kripke[nstein]—each of whom voiced scepticism toward ...

In the Beginning was the Work: Donald MacKinnon’s Metaphysics after Lenin

Modern Theology, Volume 42, Issue 1, Page 210-236, January 2026.
Abstract Donald MacKinnon expressed a distinctly realist and actualist metaphysic. One aspect of his metaphysics that is less frequently commented upon, however, is his reception of Vladimir Lenin. While not an unqualified admirer of Bolshevism, it is readily apparent that MacKinnon incorporated elements of Lenin’s philosophy and theories regarding ...
