A critique of van Fraassen's voluntaristic epistemology

SynthÈse, 1994
Van Fraassen's epistemology is forged from two commitments, one to a type of Bayesianism and the other to what he terms voluntarism.

Van Fraassen on Explanation

The Journal of Philosophy, 1987

van Fraassen's Semanticism

PSA: Proceedings of the Biennial Meeting of the Philosophy of Science Association, 1984
Bas van Fraassen has formulated a semantical or model theoretic analysis of the structure of scientific theories. He contrasts his semantical approach with the syntactic approach of the logical positivists and argues that his theory is preferable on a number of grounds. My aims in this paper will be threefold.
