Knowledge as System: a Logic of Epistemology
نویسنده
چکیده
The philosophical logic developed by the Franco-Romanian thinker Stéphane Lupasco (Bucharest, 1900 – Paris, 1988) includes a systems approach to epistemology that complements independent work of von Bertalanffy and other general systems theorists. Basing his theory primarily on quantum mechanics, Lupasco proposed that the fundamental dualistic antagonism present in energy and accordingly in all phenomena could be formalized as a logic of an included middle with a semantics based on ‘reality values’ in place of truth values. This extension of logic provides a basis for the origin of systems in energy, and a metaphysics of knowledge considered as systems of real processes that follow the same dynamics of opposition. Applications to the epistemological problems of knowledge of knowledge and the infinite regress are suggested. Résumé : La logique philosophique du chercheur franco-roumain Stéphane Lupasco (Bucarest, 1900 – Paris, 1988) comporte une approche systémique à l’épistémologie qui complète les travaux de von Bertalanffy et d’autres théoriciens des systèmes généraux. Basant sa théorie surtout sur la mécanique quantique, Lupasco proposa que l’antagonisme fondamental dualiste présent dans l’énergie et conséquemment dans tout phénomène puisse être formalisé en tant que logique du tiers inclus, avec une sémantique à valeurs de ‘réalité’ plutôt que de vérité. Cette extension de la logique fournit une base de l’origine des systèmes dans l’énergie, ainsi qu’une métaphysique de la connaissance considérée comme des systèmes des processus réels qui suivent la même dynamique d’opposition. Des applications aux problèmes épistémologiques de la connaissance de la connaissance et de la régression à l’infini sont suggérées.

Epistemology as one of the important branches of philosophy, discusses the nature, issues, sources, and limitations of knowledge, as well as the criteria for evaluating it. Epistemology therefore may offer teachers varied views about reality and knowledge (which are the products of education). About the relationship between epistemology and open and distance education, it is said that differen...

Formal treatments of epistemology and epistemological issues have come a great way in recent years. Valuable results have been produced by Bayesians, in formal learning theory (also known as computational epistemology in [Kelly 96] and epistemic logic. While the first to formal approaches concentrate on learning and knowledge acquisition issues, the latter concentrate on axiomatics and validity...

Epistemology and epistemic logic At first sight, the modern agenda of epistemology has little to do with logic. Topics include different definitions of knowledge, its basic formal properties, debates between externalist and internalist positions, and above all: perennial encounters with sceptics lurking behind every street corner, especially in the US. The entry 'Epistemology' in the Routledge ...
