On the Relations Between Non-Verbal Signs and Norms
Although the presumption that norms are necessarily expressed by words has traditionally prevailed in the scientific community, some scholars are challenging verbal-centrism in the normative domain. While sympathising with this cause, this paper argues that not every case in which a norm is expressible by a non-verbal sign is a case in which that norm is genetically or ontologically word-free. After mapping the different relations that can exist …
The indispensability of race in medicine
A movement asking to take race out of medicine is growing in the US. While we agree with the necessity to get rid of flawed assumptions about biological race that pervade automatic race correction in medical algorithms, we urge caution about insisting on a blanket eliminativism about race in medicine. If we look at racism as a fundamental cause, in the sense that this notion has been introduced in epidemiological studies by Bruce Link and Jo Phel…
The ontology of the architectural work and its closeness to the culinary work
According to a standard view, architectural works are nothing but material buildings. This paper argues that this is just one of many options, each of which may capture more incisively what architects really produce in different circumstances. Three fundamental splits are examined. First, architectural works can be regarded as either objects or events. Second, they can be understood as mere abstract entities, types, or concrete particulars. Third…
A reconsideration of the role of self-identified races in epidemiology and biomedical research

Individuals, Humanity, and Reproductive Medicine
In Milan Kundera’s novel Farewell Waltz, Doctor Skreta, a consultant at a Czechoslovakian centre for the treatment of female infertility, violates many of his patients’ rights: he is indifferent to their needs, neglects confidentiality, and is a manipulator who conducts his career as a doctor in a seriously ethically dubious way. This article claims that the cause of Skreta’s unethical conduct is his tendency to generalization and holism. He proj…
