De la consideración de paradojas que la teoría cuántica impone –relativas a la necesidad de un cambio de lógica– y siguiendo los planteos wittgenstenianos acerca de la fundamentación de las ciencias formales, del status y tipo de necesidad que sus proposiciones establecen mostramos cómo la epistemología emerge del lado de la filosofía práctica. Ética y política que dejan atrás su lugar de exterior complementario al núcleo duro de la ciencia implicando una inversión de la relación tradicional entre las ciencias naturales y las sociales.

Leibniz planned to publish the great Treatise on the Dynamica, written during his Italian journey (1689-90). In the end, however, he decided against publication, and the text was not edited until 1860 by Gerhard. The present critical edition is unique in that it brings together all of Leibniz's autograph drafts, the intermediate copies and the final copy intended for publication. It also aims to reconstitute Leibniz’s complete editorial plan, by adding to it the appendices (Miscellanea), articles published in scholarly journals and studies on various subjects of astronomy and natural philosophy, which Leibniz had planned to append to the main work.

La bipartition entre une dynamica abstracta et une dynamica concreta est récurrente dans la production scientifique leibnizienne en dépit des acquisitions conceptuelles qui – dès la rédaction de la Dynamica de Potentia de 1690 – permettraient de la dépasser. S’appuyant sur l’étude des manuscrits inédits réalisée en vue de la publication de la première édition critique du traité, l’article se propose : 1. d’explorer les raisons de la permanence d’une telle structure à la lumière des travaux logiques et grammaticaux leibniziens sur l’abstrait et le concret – 2. d’offrir au lecteur une contextualisation et une présentation générale de l’œuvre, ainsi qu’un aperçu du nouveau matériau éditorial disponible.

En este trabajo, partiendo de la descripción de algunas peculia-ridades propias de los fenómenos cuánticos que desde los comienzos de la teoría han resultado paradójicos, sostenemos que al interrogarlos desde una perspectiva wittgensteiniana tal perplejidad adquiere un sentido filo-sófico preciso que interpela en forma renovada la discusión acerca del es-tatus de las proposiciones de las leyes científicas. El cambio en la estruc-tura lógica de la predicación de propiedades que se impone al aceptar el formalismo estandard de la mecánica cuántica indica, siguiendo a Witt-genstein, los límites de nuestra práctica discursiva y nos permiten re-orientar la mirada de modo de disolver la paradoja.In this paper we argue that, if one analyses some well known paradoxical results of quantum mechanics from a wittgensteinean point of view, then the usually expected perplexity acquires a philoso-phical meaning that leads us to consider the status of the scientific laws from a new perspective. We also argue, following Wittgenstein, that the changes in the logical structure of predication that is forced upon us by the standard formalism of quantum theory show the limits of our classical discourse, and might also suggest a new perspective in which the paradox disappears.

Economics has developed into one of the most specialised social sciences. Yet at the same time, it shares its subject matter with other social sciences and humanities and its method of analysis has developed in close correspondence with the natural and life sciences. This book offers an up to date assessment of economics in relation to other disciplines. This edited collection explores fields as diverse as mathematics, physics, biology, medicine, sociology, architecture, and literature, drawing from selected contributions to the 2005 Annual Conference of the European Society for the History of Economic Thought (ESHET). There is currently much discussion at the leading edges of modern economics about openness to other disciplines, such as psychology and sociology. But what we see here is that economics has drawn on (as well as contributed to) other disciplines throughout its history. In this sense, in spite of the increasing specialisation within all disciplines, economics has always been an open discipline and the chapters in this volume provide a vivid illustration for this. Open Economics is a testament to the intellectual vibrancy of historical research in economics. It presents the reader with a historical introduction to the disciplinary context of economics that is the first of its kind, and will appeal to practising economists and students of the discipline alike, as well as to anybody interested in economics and its position in the scientific and social scientific landscape.
