Nacido el 26 de octubre de 1946, Carlos Ulises Moulines realizó estudios de física, filosofía y psicología en la Universidad de Barcelona, obteniendo la Licenciatura en filosofía en esa misma universidad y el doctorado en filosofía en la Universidad de Múnich, bajo la dirección de Wolfgang Stegmüller. Es uno de los más destacados filósofos de la ciencia de la actualidad y uno de los exponentes más destacados del estructuralismo metacientífico. En la presente entrevista habla de aspectos biográficos, de filosofía de la ciencia en general y de temas específicos, además de presentar sus impresiones sobre algunos temas referentes a la vida académica.

This chapter considers the framework needed in order for mathematical and physical structures to be examined and related, in philosophical terms. We contrast the structuralist account associated with Joseph Sneed, Wolfgang Stegmüller, and others with the models-focused account of Ron Giere. The former, we claim, is heavy on formalism at the expense of a consideration of practice, whereas the latter draws on a number of case studies but omits the crucial formal framework. We suggest rejecting both these extremes in favour of an approach that is appropriately formal, while retaining the ability to represent science as actually practised. We maintain the partial structures account we present here constitutes such an approach. In particular, this framework can accommodate the heuristic role of surplus mathematical structure, as described by Michael Redhead. The exploitation of such structure is a crucial feature of scientific practice that we return to throughout the book.

If Art is smart and Art is rich, then someone is both smart and rich – namely, Art. And if Art is smart and Bart is smart, then Art is something that Bart is, too – namely, smart. The first claim involves first-order quantification, a generalization concerning what kinds of things there are. The second involves second-order quantification, a generalization concerning what there is for things to be. Or so it appears. Following W.V.O. Quine, many philosophers have endorsed a thesis of Ontological Collapse about second-order quantification. They maintain that ultimately, second-order quantification reduces to first-order quantification over sets or properties, and therefore also carries the latter’s distinctive ontological commitments. In this revised version of his doctoral dissertation, awarded the Wolfgang-Stegmüller-Prize in 2012, Stephan Krämer examines the major arguments for Ontological Collapse in detail and finds all of them wanting. Quantifications, he argues, fall into at least two irreducible kinds: those on what things there are, and those on what there is for things to be.
