In early philosophical literature, a 'prediction' was considered to be an empirical consequence of a theory that had not yet been verified at the time the theory was constructed - an 'accommodation' was one that had. The view that predictions are superior to accommodations in the assessment of scientific theories is known as 'predictivism'. Commonly, however, predictivism is understood more precisely as entailing that evidence confirms theory more strongly when predicted than when...

Can a government legitimately prevent consenting adults from publishing and viewing pornography in private, or would this be an unjustified violation of basic freedoms? This question lies at the heart of a debate that raises fundamental issues about just when, and on what grounds, the state is justified in using its coercive powers to limit individual freedom....

Descriptions

[Revised entry by Peter Ludlow on September 21, 2022.
Changes to: Main text, Bibliography]
The analysis of descriptions has played an important role in debates about metaphysics, epistemology, semantics, psychology, logic and linguistics ever since the publication of Bertrand Russell's paper "On Denoting," in 1905. Despite the apparent simplicity of definite and indefinite descriptions, the past 100+ years have seen heated debates about their proper analysis.

Logical Empiricism
from Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy
(2022-9-22 10:37)
|
[Revised entry by Richard Creath on September 21, 2022.
Changes to: Main text, Bibliography]
Logical empiricism is a philosophic movement rather than a set of doctrines, and it flourished in the 1920s and 30s in several centers in Europe and in the 40s and 50s in the United States. It had several different leaders whose views changed considerably over time. Moreover, these thinkers differed from one another, often sharply. Because logical empiricism is here construed as a movement rather than as doctrine, there is probably no important position that all logical empiricists shared - including, surprisingly enough, empiricism....
