A Conversation about Modeling in Philosophy
In P. Barrieu (ed.), Dialogues Around Models and Uncertainty An Interdisciplinary Perspective. Singapur: pp. 331–347 (2020)
Abstract
This is a conversation about the application of modeling methods in philosophy and how modeling helps to address philosophical issues that are otherwise difficult to solve. We also talk about the role of mathematics and language in modeling. As an illustration, we analyze the No Alternatives Argument.Author's Profile
