    Argumentations and Logic
    (Birkhäuser, 2024) Correia, Manuel
    This paper comments on John Corcoran’s “Argumentations and Logic,” in which his author proposes that logic is the study of argumentations. Since this view challenges the traditional hylomorphic interpretation of logic as the study of formal arguments, which he identifies to Quine’s definition as the systematic studies of tautologies, and it makes difficult to distinguish logic from the contemporary theory of argumentation, I have opened a third alternative proposing to distinguish argument from argumentation through a renewal of the ancient quinquepartite doctrine saying that any logical argument contains the minimal parts for being conclusive, while any argumentation also contains the proof that make either credible or valid the premises of an argument.

    Aristotle's Views on Economics
    (Palgrave Macmillan, 2024) Arancibia Collao, Fernando Andres; Correa, Felipe
    This entry presents an exploration of Aristotle’s perspectives on economics, underscoring his seminal influence on economic thought and his distinctive approach that intertwines economics with ethics and moral philosophy. Aristotle defines economics (oikonomia) as “household management”, focusing on household organization and the production and consumption of goods. A pivotal aspect of Aristotle’s economic thought is the intrinsic linkage between ethics and economics, with ethics pertaining to the individual aspects of behaviour, like virtue, profit and its relation to happiness (eudaimonia). Aristotle’s approach is normative, encompassing reflections on actions and alternatives, considering both facts and values. He emphasizes moderation as the guiding principle of ethical virtues related to economics, advocating for the avoidance of extremes in the pursuit of wealth and in economic transactions.

    By Way of Conclusion: (Neo) Platonism
    (2020) Alvarado Marambio, José Tomas
    This last chapter offers an overview of what has been argued through the book. The ontology defended is one in which in the fundamental level there are only transcendent universals and their instantiations. Everything else is grounded on these basic categories of entities. Universals have priority over particular instantiations, though, because transcendent universals are independent of those instantiations. Following the characterization of ‘emergence’ by Barnes, particular objects are emergent from universals.

    Empiricist platonic epistemology and the internalist-externalist debate in the Theaetetus
    (2020) Boeri, Marcelo D.
    If epistemology can be characterized as the theory of knowledge and its justification, and if it is certain that (as I set out to argue) the Platonic remarks against the perceptual definition of knowledge go beyond what usually is taken to be epistemology, Plato’s epistemology in Theaetetus does not look very epistemological from a contemporary perspective. In this paper, I argue that Plato does not limit his view of what knowledge is to the theoretical sphere, but also considers how a description of what knowledge is would work in the practical domain. Thus, he was also concerned with stressing the connections between the theoretical and practical realms, thus indicating that the theoretical discussion of knowledge cannot be conceptualized independently of what it means at the practical level. Second, I also suggest that Plato was aware of the so-called debate about the first and the third person authority in knowledge; he noted (and to some extent endorsed) the view that no one can know better than oneself what oneself is perceptually experiencing when oneself is experiencing it. If this is right, Plato, even rejecting the thesis that knowledge is perception, somehow favors Protagoras’ relativist view (every doxa is true for the person whose doxa it is) and, at this specific point, the homo mensura thesis understood in this way seems to contain a bulk of truth.

    Identity Conditions for Transcendent Universals
    (2020) Alvarado Marambio, José Tomas
    It has been argued above that it is essential for a universal the nomological relations into which they enter. Even more, it has been argued that there is just a unique nomic network of necessary existence. Nevertheless, some have maintained that the conditions of identity for universals that result from these ideas are incoherent. It is explained here that this problem of incoherence can be dealt with, but assuming that the nomic structure is ontologically prior to the universals that enter in it. Universals are nodes in this unique necessary nomic structure.

    Modality as a property of terms
    (College Publications, 2024) Correia Machuca, Manuel
    The systematic account of deductive reasoning and the development of a formal logic to reveal the principles of such reasoning began with Aristotle's syllogistic. It was a term logic, a logic that dominated the field until the rise of modern predicate logic at the end of the Nineteenth century. That system quickly supplanted the old logic of terms. However, in the middle of the Twentieth century Fred Sommers took up the challenge to build a revised and strengthened term logic, one fit to challenge the hegemony of predicate logic. The aim was to devise a formal logic that could better serve as the logic of natural language. In recent years a new group of logicians have taken this version of term logic into many new directions. This book presents here for the first time some of the best examples of their work with new essays by philosophers, logicians, mathematicians, computational theorists, and historians of logic. The topics addressed include relative terms, logical copulation, Aristotelian diagrams, modality, truth, semantics, epistemic term logic, non-classical quantifiers, and more.

    Objections Against Transcendent Universals
    (Springer Cham, 2020) Alvarado Marambio, José Tomás
    Many objections have been directed against Platonic universals. These objections have seemed so grave that many philosophers are simply closed to consider any positive argument in favor of transcendent universals. This chapter considers the most often referred to objections: (i) the problem of causal powers, (ii) the lack of economy of Platonic universals, and (iii) the epistemological problem about how can one access a transcendent realm of universals. According to the ‘Eleatic principle’ everything should modify the causal powers of something. Supposedly, transcendent universals don’t, so they cannot be admitted into existence. It has also been argued that transcendent universals are less economical than immanent universals because an ontology of transcendent universals requires additionally ‘instantiations’ of universals. In the third place, it has been said that transcendent universals are epistemologically transcendent to our cognitive powers. It is argued in this chapter, nevertheless, that none of these objections is compelling. All causal powers depend on universals. Platonic universals are not less economical than Aristotelian universals, because the introduction of ‘instantiations’, ‘tropes’, ‘modes’ or primitive ‘states of affairs’ is a general requirement for any ontology of universals and particulars. Platonic universals are, finally, not epistemologically transcendent. They are known by their instantiations.

    Psicología
    (Comares Editorial, 2024) Boeri Carranza, Marcelo Diego; Aoiz, Javier; Vigo, Alejandro G.
    Como nadie ignora, Aristóteles (384/383 - 322/321 a. C.) es, junto con su maestro Platón, uno de los filósofos más importantes e influyentes de la historia. Puede decirse que ambos sentaron las bases fundamentales del posterior desarrollo de la tradición filosófica occidental. Sin embargo, el interés por el pensamiento y pensamiento de Aristóteles no tiene un alcance meramente histórico. Por el contrario, Aristóteles sigue siendo un interlocutor principal en los debates filosóficos del presente, en muy diversas áreas temáticas. Más allá de lo que con razón pueda considerarse superado u obsoleto en su obra, lo cierto es que su vigencia y su actualidad como pensador resulta verdaderamente sorprendente.La presente compilación reúne volumen reúne una serie de trabajos, trece en total, re-dactados por reconocidos especialistas del ámbito iberoamericano, que ofrecen una visión de conjunto de la obra de Aristóteles, atendiendo a las principales áreas temáticas que comprende su pensamiento, a saber: lógica, física, cosmología, psicología, biología, metafísica, teología, ética, política, retórica y poética. Se añade también un estudio de los fragmentos conservados de las obras perdidas, una discusión de algunos de los motivos principales de la recepción contemporánea del pensamiento aristotélico y una extensa bibliografía anotada.De conformidad con los lineamientos generales de la serie de las Guías Comares, se trata de textos de carácter introductorio, que están destinados a un público amplio, pero que, a la vez, pretender servir como apoyo también para los estudiantes de nivel universitario. En tal sentido, buscan combinar la claridad expositiva con el nivel técnico exigido por el estado de la actual investigación especializada.
