Study of scenarios for the sustainability of technological development of regional industrial complexes
The study reveals the results of consideration of problematic issues reflecting the choice of scenario options for the sustainability of technological development of regional industrial complexes. The methodology of application of modular models under study provided an opportunity to identify the goal orientation and key aspects of the sustainability of technological development at the regional level. Among the specific features of the methodolog…
Modeling the digital transformation of industrial holdings
The article reflects the achieved results of research on methodological provisions related to the application of economic models in the digital transformation of industrial holdings. The methodology of using economic models under consideration made it possible to identify the target orientation and the main tasks of digital transformation. The characteristic features of the proposed methodology should be considered: generalization of the signs of…
Hume on causation
In recent years, a number of philosophers have promoted a quasi-realist (or projectivist) interpretation of Hume's theory of causation. In this paper, we argue against the quasi-realist interpretation of Hume, on the grounds that there is a direct clash between a fundamental element of Hume's system (his empiricist theory of content) and one of the main constraints that governs any form of quasi-realism (and so a fortiori, quasi-realism about cau…
Development of the program for sustainability of technological development of an industrial enterprise
The article presents the results of a study of the conceptual foundations of the sustainability of technological development in the context of import substitution. The considered methodology of sustainability determines the purpose and key tasks, organizational and economic algorithm, methodological principles of technological development. The distinctive features of the proposed methodology include: systematization of typological factors of sust…
What Holds You Together
It has long been customary to refer to Lacan's theory of the four discourses as a theory of four specific forms of social link. An understanding of each of the terms in question, however – both ‘discourse’ and ‘social link’ – must be developed in its own right in order to develop a fuller understanding of the meaning of this formula. In this essay, we will explore the employment of the term ‘social link’ in the work of Émile Durkheim and Ferdinan…
Formation and Development of the Concept of Discourse in Lacan and Benveniste
Much has been written about Jacques Lacan’s theory of the four discourses. His idiosyncratic employment of the term ‘discourse’ itself, however, has gone generally unexplored. This article demonstrates how Lacan’s conception of discourse as a structure founded on language and determining modes of relation emerged not only out of psychoanalytic practice, but also by way of a long-running conversation with the French linguist Émile Benveniste. Inde…
On Epigenesis
On Epigenesis" consists of a series of interrelated short articles examining the philosophical concept of epigenesis, with a particular focus on Catherine Malabou's development of it in contemporary thought. Alexander Miller introduces the topic of epigenesis and considers its significance as a new paradigm. He also presents the reader with an overview of Malabou's work on the topic: Drawing from recent advances in the life sciences as well as th…
Technological management of oil companies in face of global challenges
The paper describes the current state of integrated economic structures of the oil and gas sector in the face of falling demand for oil and oil products, intensified by the difficult epidemiological situation in regional consumer markets. Methodological approaches to the management of technological resources of large industrial facilities in the restructuring of the management system are justified. Attention is paid to the expansion of the functi…
Verheggen on Davidson and Kripke on Rule-Following and Meaning
This paper discusses Claudine Verheggen's account of what she takes to be Donald Davidson's response to the sceptical paradox about rule-following and meaning developed in Saul Kripke's interpretation of Wittgenstein's ‘rule-following considerations.’ It focusses on questions about the normativity of meaning, the social character of meaning, and the role of triangulation in Davidson's account of the determination of meaning, and invites Verheggen…
Understanding the mental health consequences of family separation for refugees
Consistent evidence documents the negative impacts of family separation on refugee mental health and concerns for the welfare of distant family members and desire to reunite with family members as priorities for refugees postmigration. Less is known about refugees' emic perspectives on their experiences of family separation. Using mixed methods data from a community-based mental health intervention study, we found that family separation was a maj…
A Companion to the Philosophy of Language
This essay is an attack on the thesis that only connectives with harmonious introduction and elimination rules possess senses.
Companion to the Philosophy of Language
Wittgenstein
Wittgenstein's Metaphilosophy
In this provocative and very well-written book, Paul Horwich argues that Wittgenstein's most important insight is that expressed by his famous remark that ‘Philosophy is a battle against the bewitchment of our intelligence by means of language’ (Wittgenstein 1973: §109). According to Wittgenstein's anti-theoretical, deflationary view of philosophy, traditional or theoretical philosophy (‘T-philosophy’)—the attempt to provide by a priori methods f…
Representation and Reality in Wittgenstein's Tractatus
In this powerful study, José Zalabardo focuses on the Tractatus Account of Representation and Reality (TARR). The rough outline of TARR is familiar: propositions can represent the whole of reality since everything that can be the case consists in the obtaining and non-obtaining of states of affairs, and every proposition is a truth function of elementary propositions (where these latter represent states of affairs). What is harder to grasp is how…
Blind Rule-Following and the 'Antinomy of Pure Reason
Saul Kripke identifies the ‘rule-following problem’ as finding an answer to the question: What makes it the case that a speaker means one thing rather than another by a linguistic expression? In a series of important papers in the 1980s and 1990s, Crispin Wright and Paul Boghossian argued that this problem could be neutralized via the adoption of a form of non-reductionism about content. In recent work on ‘blind rule-following’, however, both now…

Differences with Wright
Rule‐Following and Externalism
John McDowell has suggested recently that there is a route from his favoured solution to Kripke's Wittgenstein's “sceptical paradox” about rule‐following to a particular form of cognitive externalism. In this paper, 1 argue that this is not the case: even granting McDowell his solution to the rule‐following paradox, his preferred version of cognitive externalism does not follow

The Roman Triumph in Purcell's Odes
The libretti of Purcell's odes deploy the rhetoric of Rome and its triumphs, sometimes in fanciful triumphs of love, sometimes to accord England the status of an imperial power. The article surveys these characteristics in general, and analyses in more detail the four ode texts that most fully utilize triumph.
On Wright's Argument against Deflationism
I consider Crispin Wright's much discussed ‘inflationary’ argument against deflationism about truth. I identify a principle apparently involved in it, which I call Wright's principle, and present Wright's argument with the following dilemma. If Wright's principle is sound, the deflationist has a straightforward rejoinder to Wright's argument. If Wright's principle is unsound, the central part of Wright's argument, concerned with how ‘true’ commut…

The Significance of Semantic Realism
Objectivity Disfigured
Mark Johnston has recently attacked various versions of subjectivism and anti-realism, using what he calls the missing-explanation (hereafter, the MEA).2 In this paper I shall outline the MEA, and show how Johnston takes it to demolish some anti-realist views, both historical and contemporary. In particular, I shall outline how the argument would apply to the view about the origin of piety espoused by Euthyphro in Plato's dialogue of that name, t…
