Qualitative Grounds
Suppose that all non-qualitative facts are grounded in qualitative facts. I argue that this view naturally comes with a picture in which trans-world identity is indeterminate. But this in turn leads to either pervasive indeterminacy in the non-qualitative, or else contingency in what facts about modality and possible worlds are determinate. 1 Ground and Necessity Shamik Dasgupta argues that we ...
متن کاملLogical grounds
The view that some facts obtain in virtue of other facts is both natural and plausible. Causal examples come to mind: if an event e caused an event f , then it sounds correct to say that the fact that f occurred obtains in virtue of the fact that e occurred—or, to put it in a less cumbersome way, that f occurred because e occurred. But many noncausal cases also come to mind, as illustrated, for...
متن کاملDifference - Making Grounds
We define a notion of difference-making for partial grounds of a fact in rough analogy to existing notions of difference-making for causes of an event. Using orthodox assumptions about ground, we show that it induces a non-trivial division with examples of partial grounds on both sides. We then demonstrate the theoretical fruitfulness of the notion by applying it to the analysis of a certain ki...
متن کاملOn What Grounds What
ion: The grounding relations are relations of abstraction. The derivative entities, in order to be an ‘‘ontological free lunch’’ and count as no further addition, ought to be already latent within the substances. In other words, the grounding relations should just be ways of separating out aspects that are implicitly present from the start.37 Here is the sort of picture of substances that these...
متن کاملShifting grounds: how industry emergence changes the effectiveness of knowledge creation strategies - the case of the US automotive airbag industry
This paper investigates the effect industry life cycle phase shifts have on the effectiveness of firms’ knowledge creation strategies. Building on literature streams on strategic knowledge management and industry life cycles, we develop theoretical arguments for why the best knowledge search strategy should be different before the emergence of an industry compared to afterwards. Testing our hyp...
