Logical Determinateness, Fixity, and the Symmetry of Time.Joseph Diekemper - 2005 - Philosophical Papers 34 (1):1-24.details Abstract In this paper, I investigate the purported dilemma between a symmetrical conception of time and the denial of what I call Universal Logical Determinateness (ULD). According to the dilemma, the timeless and universal application of logical laws to all propositions necessitates either the view that the past and future are both open, or that they are both closed. My investigation proceeds by way of an assessment of Taylor's argument for fatalism, then of Dummet's presentation and refutation of the fatalistic (...) Download Export citation Bookmark 3 citations
Kyrieuon logos: Diodoro Crono y el problema del determinismo a la luz de Metafísica IX, 31.Iván de los Ríos Gutiérrez - 2018 - Trans/Form/Ação 41 (1):9-30.details Resumen: El presente artículo tiene por objetivo la reconstrucción del argumento dominador atribuido a Diodoro Crono y su revisión filosófica a la luz de la crítica aristotélica al actualismo extremo de la Escuela de Mégara en Metafísica IX, 3.

Los futuros contingentes y De Interpretatione, IX.Javier Picón Casas - 2009 - Anales Del Seminario de Historia de la Filosofía 26:51-61.details Some authors have talken about the problem of the future contingents Aristotle exposed in De Interpretatione IX. But most of them do not explain the role of that chapter in his own work. Last analysis always try to find a formal solution. And this is very significative because De Interpretatione is a treatise that belongs to the semantic of the Organon. In this article we show that: 1.

Determinisms.Vladimir Marko - 2016 - Belgrade Philosophical Annual 29:115-141.details Determinism is usually understood as a commonly clear and obvious thesis. In the most of the actual literature a character of determinism is rarely enough explicitly underlined and we believe that it is the reason why common uses of the term often leads to inconsistencies and present a source of misunderstandings of different sorts. Here we will try to show that that there are many forms of determinism; that the concept of determinism has a composite character; and that conceptions of (...) Download Export citation Bookmark
Was Łukasiewicz Wrong? : Three-valued Logic and Determinism.Daisuke Kachi - 1996 - In Łukasiewicz in Dublin -- An International Conference on the Work of Jan Łukasiewicz.details Łukasiewicz has often been criticized for his motive for inventing his three-valued logic, namely the avoidance of determinism. First of all, I want to show that almost all of the critcism along this line was wrong. Second I will indicate that he made mistakes, however, in constructing his system, because he had other motives at the same time. Finally I will propose some modification of his system and its interpretation which can attain his original purpose in some sense. Download Export citation Bookmark
