Laws and Reasons Why

Analytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Laws play some role in explanations: at the very least, they somehow connect what is explained, or the explanandum, to what explains, or the explanans. Thus, thermodynamical laws connect the match's being struck and its lightning, so that the former causes the latter; and laws about set formation connect Socrates' existence with {Socrates}'s ...

Theory of Sense‐Data

Analytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT I develop and defend a sense‐datum theory of perception. My theory follows the spirit of classic sense‐datum theories: I argue that what it is to have a perceptual experience is to be acquainted with some sense‐data, where sense‐data are private particulars that have all the properties they appear to have, that are common to both perception ...

Phase transitions in dimensional reduction up to three loops*

Chinese Physics C
Abstract We perform the first computation of phase-transition parameters to cubic order in , where m is the scalar mass and T is the temperature, in a simple model resembling the Higgs sector of the SMEFT.

Inquiry and Logical Form

Philosophical Perspectives, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Joint inquiry requires agents to exchange public content about some target domain, which in turn requires them to track which content a linguistic form contributes to a conversation. But, often, the inquiry delivers a necessary truth. For example, if we are inquiring whether a particular bird, Tweety, is a woodpecker, and discover that it is ...

The efficacy of biologic factors on the surgical therapy of periodontal suprabony defects: A systematic review and network meta‐analysis of randomized clinical trials

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives This systematic review investigated the efficacy of biologic factors in the surgical treatment of periodontal suprabony defects. Materials and Methods Three databases were searched to identify RCTs comparing open‐flap debridement (OFD) combined with biologic factors only, or combined with bone substitute, and/or barriers to the same

There Is Always a Bigger Fish. Determinants of Power Perceptions in Swiss Biodiversity Policy

Policy Studies Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Advocacy Coalition Framework (ACF) views power as crucial in policy processes, but the nature of coalition power, its determinants, and how to empirically measure it remain understudied. In this article, we use a mixed method approach and social network analysis to explore power relationships in the biodiversity policy subsystem in ...

Heidegger and Levinas on the phenomenology of the hand: Between work and gesture

The Southern Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract This article explores how Heidegger and Levinas develop distinct phenomenological accounts of the hand. Both thinkers refuse to treat the hand as merely an anatomical organ, instead viewing it as an essential dimension of human existence. Yet their interpretations diverge sharply. In the first section, I show how Heidegger grounds the function

Animal Segregation: The Biopolitics of Concentrated Pig Farming

Tijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores the possibility to think through the concept of animal segregation to understand the more‐than‐human geographies of livestock animals. By redirecting the analytical tools for studying the spatial separation of humans to the segregation of animals, this paper contributes to understanding the geographical processes of ...
