SYMMETRY AND QUALITATIVITY.
In this paper the relationship between the notion of symmetry and that of qualitativity is examined. In particular, it is argued that, on the standard construal of the notion of qualitativity, a widely-held view about the relationship between these two notions is mistaken. However, it is argued that...

In particular, it is argued that, on the standard construal of the notion of qualitativity, a widely-held view about the relationship between these two notions is mistaken. However, it is argued that on a nonstandard construal of the notion of qualitativity due to Ismael and van Fraassen (2003), the claimed relationship between the two notions holds much more promise. The paper ends with an attempt to build and improve upon Ismael and van Fraassen's own account of the notion of qualitativity relevant to the notion of symmetry. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Poznan Studies in the Philosophy of the Sciences & the Humanities is the property of Brill / Rodopi and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
