TY - JOUR ID - 1367760 AU - Mácha, Jakub PY - 2017 TI - Competing Ontologies and Verbal Disputes JF - Prolegomena: Journal of Philosophy VL - 16 IS - 1 SP - 7-21 EP - 7-21 SN - 13334395 KW - Agreement KW - Alignment KW - Conflict KW - Disagreement KW - Matching KW - Ontology KW - Verbal Dispute KW - Logical Pluralism UR - https://hrcak.srce.hr/file/276515 L2 - https://hrcak.srce.hr/file/276515 N2 - The notion of ontology originates in philosophy. It has been recently employed in computer science and information technology for representing knowledge. In the first part of the paper, I will argue that there is a significant overlap in these notions of ontology. Utilizing this overlap, I will show in the second part that ontologies can be used for developing a new powerful heuristic method for resolving verbal disputes in philosophy. Verbal disputes can be defined in terms of ontologies: A dispute over two texts P and S is verbal if and only if both of them can be mapped into the same ontology. In the appendix, I shall analyze the dispute over logical pluralism and indicate how my method of resolving verbal disputes can be employed. ER -
