Logical empiricists on race.
The logical empiricists expressed a consistent attitude to racial categorisation in both the ethical and scientific spheres. Their attitude may be captured in the following slogan: human racial taxonomy is an empirically meaningful mode of classifying persons that we should refrain from deploying.

متن کاملTalking at cross-purposes: how Einstein and the logical empiricists never agreed on what they were disagreeing about
By inserting the dialogue between Einstein, Schlick and Reichenbach into a wider network of debates about the epistemology of geometry, this paper shows that not only did Einstein and Logical Empiricists come to disagree about the role, principled or provisional, played by rods and clocks in General Relativity, but also that in their lifelong interchange, they never clearly identified the probl...
متن کاملTracing Logical Concurrency for Dynamic Race Detection in OpenMP Programs
OpenMP is an industry standard supporting a serialized program to be executed in parallel with simple compiler directives and libraries. OpenMP covers only user-directed parallelization and does not enforce to fix concurrency bugs, such as data races. However it is difficult to locate data races occurred in an execution of the program, because they may lead the program execution to be non-deter...
متن کاملThe Forgotten Tradition. How the Logical Empiricists Missed the Philosophical Significance of the Work of Riemann, Christoffel and Ricci
The paper attempts to show how the Logical Empiricists' interpretation of the relation between geometry and reality emerges from a collision of mathematical traditions. Considering Riemann's work as the initiator of a 19th century geometrical tradition, whose main protagonists were Helmholtz and Poincaré, the Logical Empiricists neglected the fact that Riemann's revolutionary insight ourished r...
