Systemisches Innovations- und Kompetenzmanagement
Im internationalen Wettbewerb um Technologie, Wachstum und Arbeitsplätze sind Innovationen entscheidend fÃ1⁄4r den langfristigen Erfolg von Unternehmen. Um Innovationen in Unternehmen zu ermöglichen, muss der systemische Prozess verstanden werden. Ein gezieltes Management des Innovationsprozesses ist nur dann möglich, wenn man erkannt hat, wie Systeme und Individuen entscheiden und handeln.

Physics and Ontology
The recent philosophy of physics is confronted with the new ontology, as it emerges after philosophy proper has fully articulated the linguistic turn. The classical ontologists asserted or denied, controversially, that certain entities “existed.” Rather than adding to these controversies, the new ontology uncovers their dialectics. The ontologically problematic entities of physics are of two kinds, represented by forces and particles, respectivel…
Duration and the Specious Present
The problem I shall discuss is specific, even minute. Yet, being philosophical, it arises and can be profitably discussed only in a context anything but minute, namely, that of a conception of philosophy and its proper method. I could not possibly unfold my conception once more for the sake of a minute problem. Nor do I believe that as things now stand this is necessary. I shall merely recall two propositions which are crucial in the context, and…

Terminalkausalitat als die Grundlage Eines Unitarischen Naturbegriffs
Frege's Hidden Nominalism
SOME philosophical pieces are like symphonies, others like quartets. This one is merely an ontological theme with variations. After I have introduced the theme, it will be seen that Exemplification versus Mapping is a very good name for it. The phrase does not signify, though, except to one already familiar with the theme. That is why I did not choose it as a title. All but the last of the variations are comments on Frege's ontology, though as su…

The Metaphysics of Logical Positivism.
Russell's Examination of Leibniz Examined
Russell's book on Leibniz appeared in 1900. That it is important, because of its subject and because of its author, hardly needs to be argued. An examination of it, or of parts of it, after more than half a century is therefore in order. Yet the title I chose indicates only part of my intent. The other part is to examine certain ideas, irrespective of what either Leibniz or Russell thought and of what the latter thought about the thoughts of the …

Remarks on Realism
Positivists and phenomenalists of all sorts maintain, and long have maintained, some variant of the following thesis concerning the existence of physical objects: Such statements as ‘There is (exists) now a wall behind my back’ are synonymous with a class of statements of which the following is representative ‘If I shall turn my head (have certain kinesthetic experiences), then I shall also have the visual experience called ‘seeing a wall'.’ This…

Holism, Historicism, and Emergence
In a recent article P. Henle gave an analysis of the notion of emergence. His inquiry deals with what he calls, quite appropriately, the emergence of characteristics. Such emergence, that is, the emergence of qualities and relations is undoubtedly the primary connotation of the term, and I feel that Henle has been very successful in clarifying it. The purpose of the present paper is to discuss in some detail one special aspect of Henle's analysis…

The Logic of Psychological Concepts
The purpose of this paper is to provide a methodological rather than, strictly speaking, a philosophical discussion of its subject, the logic of concept formation in psychology. But even a treatment of this kind cannot entirely avoid matters of a more general nature, some of them logical, some epistemological. By insisting on the limitations of this essay I merely wish to caution the reader in three respects. First, those more general matters, lo…

Russell on Particulars
An Empiricist Schema of the Psychophysical Problem
This paper does not purport to present a fully developed argument. Rather, it intends to delineate, in broad strokes and in a synoptic manner, the total frame of reference of Scientific Empiricism as far as it is necessary for an integration of the several contributory clarifications of the complex, usually referred to as the psychophysical problem. Several considerations seem to justify such an attempt. It is desirable, from time to time, to fre…
The Subject Matter of Psychology
The coordination of both logical syntax and methodological analysis of scientific language by scientific empiricism (logical positivism) has achieved a twofold result: 1. Elimination of philosophical pseudo-problems and purification of the empirical sciences from the biases engendered in them by these problems. 2. Creation of an instrument apt for exact formulation, location, and analysis of the real meaning of the valid philosophical issues
On Physicalistic Models of Non-Physical Terms
Some of the objections most frequently raised against the thesis of physicalism can be summarized as follows: (V) The notions of the biological and social sciences, as e. g. organic whole and Gestalt, means and ends, leadership and hierarchical order, the entire structure and meaning of these scientific systems, are of a type essentially different from those of physics. Consequently they can not be expressed by means of the mathematical language …
On Some Methodological Problems of Psychology
At the end of the last century, there began a movement away from traditional philosophy and towards a closer contact of philosophical thought with empirical science. Philosophers following this course were met halfway by groups of scientists, mostly physicists and mathematicians, who in their own field had found themselves face to face with problems which traditionally belonged to philosophy. But since neither of these two groups was inclined to …

Syntactical Analysis of the Class Calculus
In a paper read before the last Congress for the Unity of Science, Dr. Milton Singer distinguishes three main phases in the recent history of logic. The achievement he considers most characteristic of the first period is the development of the class calculus or so-called Boolean algebra. It begins with the work of Boole and DeMorgan and culminates in Schroeder's Algebra of Logic. In a minimum formulation, the results of this first stage can be su…
Remarks Concerning the Epistemology of Scientific Empiricism
The present paper purports partly to reexamine and partly to summarize several points which occupied and still occupy a central position in more recent discussions among empiricist philosophers. As such discussions are essentially attempts at the clarification of terms, it might also be said that this essay intends to contribute to the analysis of certain very general and highly ambiguous expressions. The words in question are, first and mainly, …
Notes on Identity
This is a brief sketch of the form which the analysis of the concept of identity would take under the impact of the most recent phase of Scientific Empiricism. The frame of reference is thus that of Carnap's Introduction to Semantics. Most characteristic of this approach is that it reaches its main clarifications by distinguishing between the various connotations of the traditional terms along the three lines of syntax, semantics, and pragmatics.…

Sense Data, Linguistic Conventions, and Existence
The following remarks have been stimulated by Mr. A. J. Ayer's recent essay “The Terminology of Sense Data.” In this paper Mr. Ayer restates several of the points he has made in his book The Foundations of Empirical Knowledge. The context of his argument is that of the traditional distinction between two kinds of things, sense data, percepts, phenomenal or direct given-nesses on the one hand and so-called physical objects on the other. In this co…

1. In his paper “On Denoting” Russell points out what he calls a puzzle every satisfactory theory of denoting will have to solve. Of the three sentences (A) George IV. wished to know whether Scott was the author of Waverley (B) Scott is the author of Waverley (C) George IV. wished to know whether Scott was Scott the first two, (A) and (B), are presumably true, while the third, (C), is presumably false. The reason given for considering this arrang…
Two cornerstones of empiricism
Two Criteria For an Ideal Language
The lucidity of Mr. Copilowish's argument makes the task of the reviewer very pleasant, even if he disagrees as completely as I do with the conclusion, which is the main thesis Mr. Copilowish attempts to prove. Only at one minor point does his exposition not quite suit my taste. He chose to preface his argument with a string of quotations supposedly supporting the position he wishes to defend. It seems to me that with the proper historical precau…
