Matemaattinen formalismi taloustieteessä : Tony Lawsonin ja Deirdre McCloskeyn uusklassisen taloustieteen metodologian analyysit

2012

Tutkielmassani tarkastelen modernissa taloustieteessä valta-asemassa olevan uusklassisen koulukunnan metodologiaa ja sen teoreettisia taustaoletuksia kahden huomattavimmista uusklassisen taloustieteen kriitikoista, Tony Lawsonin ja Deirdre McCloskeyn, projektien, kriittisen realismin ja taloustieteen retoriikan, kautta. Tarkoituksenani on löytää heidän uusklassisen metodologian kritiikkinsä oleelliset piirteet ja tarkastella sitä, missä määrin ne ovat yhteneviä, missä määrin toisilleen vastakkaisia ja missä määrin taas toisiaan täydentäviä. Ensimmäisessä osassa tarkastelen toisaalta Lawsonin ja McCloskeyn teorioden taustaoletuksia, heidän ontologisia ja epistemologisia/metodologisia näkemyk…

Las paradojas de la identificación

1987

Me voy a ocupar del tema de la «identificación”. Pero quisiera precisar que no es mi intención atenerme de modo estricto al espléndido trabajo del profesor Strawson, desplegado en su libro Individuals. Mi propósito es ampliar su tratamiento de la identificación y dramatizar algunos aspectos del problema que no fueron considerados por él. Es decir, recurriré a otras fuentes de información que no fueron consignadas en su obra, pero que ponen de manifiesto algunos elementos importantes del problema. Y que son elementos paradójicos porque contribuyen a crear una falsa creencia en la racionalización que se realiza mediante la identificación. Pues quisiera sugerir que ésta, la identificación, est…

Jevons on the Ricardian Theory of Distribution. An Interpretation

2004

The paper reconstructs Jevons' strategy of interpretation of Ricardian economics in the light of some hermeneutic categories. Jevons' basic goal appears to be a critical assessment of the net scientific content of Classical economics. He envisages a three steps exegetical strategy: first he points out the scientific standards all economic theories should conform to and elaborates his new economic theory in compliance with these standards; then he scrutinizes the corpus of received economic doctrines in the light of his theory and, finally, he passes his sentence. Jevons' belief that truth in economics is one prevents him to recognize that what he calls scientific errors may actually be theo…

Gestalt Theory Rearranged: Back to Wertheimer

2017

Wertheimer's seminal paper of 1923 was of gerat influence in psychology and other sciences. Wertheimer also emphasized the weaknesses of the newborn Gestalt theory: too many basic laws, and the ambiguity of definitions. At the same time, the paper contained potential solutions to these problems, in the form of a number of very important ideas, some of which were presented implicitly: perception through imitation, communicative nature of linear drawings and writings, transfer from the visual domain to motor domain, linguistic interpretation of the Gestalt. In this paper it will be shown that based on these ideas the Gestalt theory can be rearranged so that the main notions can be well define…

Spontaneous bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the left hemi-mandible: Similarities with phossy jaw.

2013

Intravenous bisphosphonates (BP) play a key role in the treatment of bone metastases. As a long-term side effects BP, a form of avascular osteonecrosis of the jaw has been reported. Although, invasive oral local procedures are often present in clinical history of patients suffering from bisphosphonates-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (BRONJ), about up to 50% of BRONJ are spontaneous. We report a case of a 68-year-old female with a spontaneous wide bone sequestration of the left mandibular body onset after infusion of zoledronic acid for 18 cycles for osseous metastasis due to metastatic anaplastic thyroidal carcinoma. Surprisingly the clinical aspects of the patient initially reminded us …

American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons position paper: Bisphosphonate-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaws-2009 update: the need to ref…

2009

With reference to the 2009 update of the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons posi- tion paper, Bisphosphonate-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaws (BRONJ), a relevant modification to the previous classification has been made and a new stage (0) added. The latter stage has been defined as “patients with no clinical evidence of necrotic bone, but who present with nonspecific symptoms or clinical and radiographic findings . . .” and the need for various clinical and radiologic aspects in defining this condi- tion was confirmed. .

Stafne's bone cavity: An unusual case with involvement of the buccal and lingual mandibular plates

2014

Lingual mandibular bone defects, also known as Stafne bone cavity (SC), are unilateral asymptomatic radiolucencies, generally seen in the mandibular angle, below the inferior alveolar canal. Although panoramic radiographies normally offer enough information to make a correct diagnosis, additional studies are often required, especially in atypical cases. The present report describes an atypical presentation of a Stafne’s bone cavity in a 78 years-old male patient. In this particular case, an asymptomatic and radiolucid lesion was observed during a routine dental examination. The computed tomography (CT) showed an involvement of both lingual and buccal mandibular plates producing a tunnel-lik…

Simple bone cyst : a case report

2021

Background Simple bone cysts (SBC) are intraosseous cysts devoid of an epithelial lining, asymptomatic and appearing in the jaw. In general, SBCs are discovered incidentally and tooth displacement or pathological fractures are very unusual. Material and methods This study reports a 16 years old man that presented an asymtomatic radiolucent unilocular lesion in the right ascending ramus. Differencial diagnosis included odontogenic keratocyst and dentigerous cyst. One surgical intervention was performed and consisted in the curettage of the bone walls. The lesion and some small samples of the bone wall were sent for the anatomopathological study. Results The anatomopathological exam confirmed…
