| Various Authors | Feyerabend Vs Various Authors | I 355 Incommensurability: FeyerabendVsCritics: Incommensurability does not apply to all competing theories and it applies to theories only if they are interpreted in a certain way, for example, without reference to an "independent observation language"! This restriction has been overlooked by most critics. I do not claim the incommensurability of all theories! II ~ 10 FeyerabendVsEthics: it assumes that man is entirely a worldly being (materialism). II 31 "Objectivity"/FeyerabendVs: supposed to conceal a position or tradition. Position a participant who abstains from his skepticism. II 74 FeyerabendVsLogic: the objection assumes that the class of the consequences of a scientific sentence is fixed irrespective of the treatment of the sentence and according to the rules of propositional logic. This assumption has never been substantiated. The propositional logic is only one among many logical systems, there are also intuitionistic logics within them without Foreclosed Third. II 162 VsAstrology: it is criticized that stars lead to tendencies but not to constraints. Astrology/Feyerabend: connects their success with making money! |
