Derecho, narración y racionalidad jurídica. El caso de la fazaña bajomedieval
2011
Resumen Durante buena parte del siglo XX, se consideró a la fazaña castellana un reflejo fiel de usos y costumbres con capacidad para sentar un precedente jurídico. Sin embargo, teniendo en cuenta la compleja situación sociopolítica de Castilla hacia mediados del siglo XIV y examinando en detalle su estructura narrativa, llaman la atención otros aspectos frecuentemente desatendidos, en especial, la construcción interna de estos relatos con un fuerte grado de presuposición y arbitrariedad argumentativa. Se destacan estas formas particulares de concebir el relato jurídico especialmente en la colección de veinticinco fazañas que cierran el manuscrito 431 de la Biblioteca Nacional de Madrid (13…
A lack of meaning?
2020
This article explores the ‘lack of meaning’ in contemporary society as a consequence of Western dualist thought paradigms and ontologies, via Gilles Deleuze’s concept of ‘reactive nihilism’ following the colloquial murder of God. The article then explores processual and new materialist approaches in the understanding of the lived and carnal self, arguing for immanent and senseful materiality as an ethical platform for religious, environmental, and societal solidarity for tomorrow. For the theoretical justification of the processual approach in understanding the enfleshed self, the article employs John Dupré’s processual approach in the philosophy of biology, as well as Astrida Neimani’s cri…
No le digan loco a Bill. Sobre internalismo y externalismo de las razones para la acción
2011
En este trabajo analizaré dos concepciones de la racionalidad práctica – bien conocidas y debatidas en la literatura contemporánea – con el propósito de mostrar que una es superior a la otra. La primera concepción, que será la defendida en este trabajo, es una concepción denominada “formal” o “internalista”, mientras que la segunda podría denominarse “sustancial” o “externalista”. En particular, defenderé una concepción formal moderada, análoga a la de Bernard Williams, según la cual Juan tiene una razón para hacer X, si y sólo si hacer X representa un medio (considerado) suficiente para satisfacer un deseo que él tendría luego de haber realizado el procedimiento argumentativo racional. In …
Quine and the Contemporary Debate on Mindreading
2012
Abstract The paper examines some of the questions emerging from the debate on mindreading regarding Quine’s legacy and contribution to a new agenda on the issue. Since mindreading is an exercise in folk-psychology, a) which role folk psychology has to play according to Quine? b) was Quine’s account of mindreading closer to theory-theory, simulation theory or hybrid theory? c) was Quine a rationality theorist? d) are hybrid-theory and rationality theory incompatible as many would suggest? On the score of the answers to these questions, the paper tries to suggest a Quinean inspired blend of rationality-based and hybrid view-based strategies to explain mindreading.
Field of values and Brauer characters of q′-degree
2007
Abstract We study the existence of non-trivial real-valued (respectively rational-valued) irreducible p -Brauer characters of degree not divisible by q .
A fixed point theorem for a Meir-Keeler type contraction through rational expression
2013
In this paper, we establish a new fixed point theorem for a Meir-Keeler type contraction through rational expression. The presented theorem is an extension of the result of Dass and Gupta (1975). Some applications to contractions of integral type are given.
The Rationality Criterion
2014
In this chapter we explain a remarkable theorem of Miyaoka [32] which asserts that a foliation whose cotangent bundle is not pseudoeffective is a foliation by rational curves. The original Miyaoka’s proof can be thought as a foliated version of Mori’s technique of construction of rational curves by deformations of morphisms in positive characteristic [33].
A Property on Singularities of NURBS Curves
2002
We prove that if a.n open Non Uniform Rational B-Spline curve of order k has a singular point, then it belongs to both curves of order k - 1 defined in the k - 2 step of the de Boor algorithm. Moreover, both curves are tangent at the singular point.

contra raz su autorità, autonomia e razionalità
2019
In this article, I first argue that the necessity to solve coordination problems in the wide sense does not imply the necessity of a legitimate Razian authority. Second, I claim that the Razian conception of a legitimate authority is incompatible with a plausible conception of rationality and autonomy.
