    • Barad, Bohr, and quantum mechanics 

      Jaksland, Rasmus; Faye, Jan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The last decade has seen an increasing number of references to quantum mechanics in the humanities and social sciences. This development has in particular been driven by Karen Barad’s agential realism: a theoretical framework ...

    • Dependent philosophical majorities and the skeptical argument from disagreement 

      Jaksland, Rasmus (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      According to the skeptical argument from disagreement, we are mandated to suspend judgement about a question if we discover that others disagree with us. Critics, however, have proposed that this skeptical argument fails ...

    • Disagreement in metametaphysical dispute 

      Jaksland, Rasmus (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Recent years have seen several studies of metaphysical disputes as disagreement phenomena employing the resources from the research on disagreement in social epistemology. This paper undertakes an analogous study of the ...

      Perceptual processes differ from cognitive, this paper argues, in functioning to be causally controlled by proximal stimuli, and being modular, at least in a modest sense that excludes their being isotropic in Jerry Fodor's ...

    • The multiple realizability of general relativity in quantum gravity 

      Jaksland, Rasmus (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Must a theory of quantum gravity have some truth to it if it can recover general relativity in some limit of the theory? This paper answers this question in the negative by indicating that general relativity is multiply ...
