- Unbounded naturalism
- INTRODUCTION John McDowell's explicit aim in his seminal work Mind and World is to provide a spirited defense of common sense realism.

- Hegel, idealism and God: philosophy as the self-correcting appropriation of the norms of life and thought
- Hegel can be said to have taken philosophical idealism to its most extreme point, the point of absolute idealism, and, from the perspective of much contemporary philosophy, this has been enough to damn him. (1) However, an adequate approach to what such a philosophical stance entails, as well as what...

- Hegel's theory of moral action, its place in his system and the 'highest' right of the subject

- A Kantian Critique of Antitrust: On Morality and Microsoft
- Most economists support free markets - to a point. I chose that kst word very carefully, for just as a geometrical point is a theoretical construct that does not exist in the real world, so is the textbook model of perfect competition. But most economists support free markets only insofar...

- Hans Vaihinger's ghostly presence in contemporary literary studies
- In literary studies today, Hans Vaihinger seems to be distinctly marginal. He seldom comes up at conferences or in publications, and one is forgiven for never having heard of him. At the same time, unobtrusively, he stays with us. Rediscovered at the dawn of our current theoretical era in an...
