Podcasts about structural realism

Award winning journalist Peter Beinart discusses the messy U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan one year later and questions the wisdom of entering the war in the first place. He conjectures about why U.S. foreign policy does not seem to evolve much or reflect popular opinion as much as domestic policy.Show Notes:Peter Beinart bioPeter Beinart, “Lessons from Afghanistan a Year Later,” The Beinart Newsletter, August 15, 2022.Stephen van Evera, “Why States Believe Foolish Ideas: Non-Self-Evaluation by States and Societies,” in Perspectives in Structural Realism, edited by Andrew K.

Jacob Bell has written articles on ancient philosophy for Classical Wisdom Weekly, and he manages a popular Facebook page called Philosophy Daily. (https://www.facebook.com/loveofphilosophy/) We discuss what’s become the norm for this podcast, consciousness. We spend a lot of time on neutral monism and structural realism (or as it’s sometimes called, relational metaphysics). We also touch upon emergence, intrinsic natures, causation, and the Aristotelian notion of potentiality and actuality.

Michael Esfeld (Lausanne) gives a talk at the MCMP Colloquium titled "Causal structural realism". Abstract: Der Vortrag entwickelt zwei Thesen: (1) Die fundamentalen physikalischen Eigenschaften sind in erster Linie Relationen statt intrinsischer Eigenschaften, so dass der fundamentale physikalische Bereich aus Strukturen statt einzelner Objekte mit einer intrinsischen Identität besteht. (2) Die physikalischen Strukturen sind kausal wirksam und unterscheiden sich dadurch von mathematischen Strukturen. Ich argumentiere für diese Thesen, indem ich ihre Konsequenzen sowohl für die Metaphysik von Objekten und Eigenschaften als auch für die Philosophie der Physik und die Naturphilosophie allgemein aufzeige.

David Chalmers (NYU) meets Thomas Meier (MCMP/LMU) in a joint session on "Structural Realism" (generously supported by the Goethe-Institut New York) at the MCMP workshop "Bridges 2014" (2 and 3 Sept, 2014, German House, New York City). The 2-day trans-continental meeting in mathematical philosophy focused on inter-theoretical relations thereby connecting form and content of this philosophical exchange. Idea and motivation: We use theories to explain, to predict and to instruct, to talk about our world and order the objects therein. Different theories deliberately emphasize different aspects of an object, purposefully utilize different formal methods, and necessarily confine their attention to a distinct field of interest. The desire to enlarge knowledge by combining two theories presents a research community with the task of building bridges between the structures and theoretical entities on both sides. Especially if no background theory is available as yet, this becomes a question of principle and of philosophical groundwork: If there are any – what are the inter-theoretical relations to look like? Will a unified theory possibly adjudicate between monist and dualist positions? Under what circumstances will partial translations suffice? Can the ontological status of inter-theoretical relations inform us about inter-object relations in the world? Find more about the meeting at www.lmu.de/bridges2014.
