The manuscript offers a conceptualization and formalization of the notion of choice undecidability of an individual actor within a post-structural approach to social theory. In contrast to conventional decision theories which posit that the actors are able to delineate the set of alternative choices, this paper explores how choice undecidability shapes the decision-making process in strategic s...

According to mathematical structuralism, the subject matter of mathematics is not the study of mathematical objects, but of mathematical structures. By moving away from objects, the structuralist claims to be in a position to solve the ‘access’ problem: structuralism explains the possibility of mathematical knowledge without requiring any access to mathematical objects. Fraser MacBride has chal...

The Univalent Foundations of Mathematics (UF) provide not only an entirely non-Cantorian conception of the basic objects of mathematics (“homotopy types” instead of “sets”) but also a novel account of how foundations ought to relate to mathematical practice. In this paper, I intend to answer the question: In what way is UF a new foundation of mathematics? I will begin by connecting UF to a prag...

Abstract Lam and Esfeld have argued that, within Bohmian mechanics, the wave function can be interpreted as a physical structure instantiated by fundamental particles posited theory. Further, to characterize nature of this structure, they appeal framework Ontic Structural Realism (OSR), thereby proposing structuralist interpretation mechanics. However, I shall point out that OSR denotes family ...

Abstract This paper provides an exposition of the structuralist approach to underdetermination, which aims resolve underdetermination theories by identifying their common theoretical structure. Applications can be found in many areas philosophy. I present a schema approach, conceptually unifies such applications different subject matters. It is argued that two classic arguments literature, Paul...

More often than not, recently popular structuralist interpretations of physical theories leave the central concept of a structure insufficiently precisified. The incipient causal sets approach to quantum gravity offers a paradigmatic case of a physical theory predestined to be interpreted in structuralist terms. It is shown how employing structuralism lends itself to a natural interpretation of...
