Couverture souple. Condition: Neuf. # Broché: 182 pages # Parution : 2 octobre 2005 # Collection : Rencontres DE Normales Sup # Présentation de l'éditeur D'un homme, on dit qu'il est grand, mais aussi irascible; du cuivre qu'il est rouge, mais aussi malléable et fusible à 1084 °C. La philosophie redécouvre aujourd'hui que notre monde ne compte pas seulement des propriétés manifestes, mais aussi des potentialités, capacités, puissances, vertus et autres dispositions. Pendant longtemps, ces qualités furent impitoyablement bannies des discours scientifique et philosophique pour leur obscurité ou leur trivialité : à quoi sert-il de dire que l'opium endort parce qu'il possède une vertu dormitive ? La notion de disposition céda la à la notion de loi, enregistrement de régularités dans la succession d'événements. Ce volume veut rendre témoignage de l'intérêt nouveau que la notion de " disposition " suscite chez les philosophes contemporains. Les textes ici présentés ont le souci commun d'en défendre la cohérence et de montrer que nos explications causales peuvent difficilement s'en passer. Quel rapport la notion de pouvoir entretient-elle avec celle de loi ? Une disposition se réduit-elle au mécanisme physique qui la sous-tend ? La relation entre un pouvoir et son exercice est-elle logique ou causale ? Voici quelques-unes des questions auxquelles cet ouvrage tente d'apporter des réponses. # Biographie de l'auteur Bruno Gnassounou est ancien élève de l'ENS de la rue d'Ulm, agrégé de philosophie et maître de conférences à l'université de Nantes. Il a publié plusieurs articles sur la philosophie de l'action et la philosophie du langage. Max Kistler est maître de conférences à l'université de Paris X-Nanterre. Ses recherches portent sur la philosophie des sciences et la philosophie de l'esprit, en particulier sur les notions de causalité, de loi de la nature, de réduction et d'émergence. Il est l'auteur de Causalité et lois de la nature (1999) et co-auteur de La Philosophie des sciences au XXe siècle (2000).…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 2009 OUP hardcover edition. Unread copy in very good condition. From the cover: In recent decades, the analysis of causal relations has become a topic of central importance in analytic philosophy. More recently, dispositional properties have also become objects of intense study. Both of these phenomena appear to be intimately related to counterfactual conditionals and other modal phenomena such as objective chance, but little work has been done to directly relate them. Dispositions and Causes contains ten essays by scholars working in both metaphysics and in philosophy of science, examining the relation between dispositional and causal concepts. Particular issues discussed include the possibility of reducing dispositions to causes, and vice versa; the possibility of a nominalist theory of causal powers; the attempt to reduce all metaphysical necessity to dispositional properties; the relationship between dispositions, causes, and laws of nature; the role of causal capacities in explaining the success of scientific inquiry; the grounding of dispositions and causes in objective chances; and the type of causal power required for free agency. The introductory chapter contains a detailed overview of recent work in the area, providing a helpful entry to the literature for non-specialists. Contents List of Contributors 1. The Metaphysics of Dispositions and Causes - Toby Handfield 2. Dispositions, Causes, and Reduction - Jennifer McKitrick 3. Causal Structuralism, Dispositional Actualism, and Counterfactual Conditionals - Antony Eagle 4. Leaving Things to Take their Chances: Cause and Disposition Grounded in Chance - Stephen Barker 5.
