1Coordination and Measurement: What We Get Wrong about What Reichenbach Got RightEuropean Studies in Philosophy of Science 5 49-60. 2017.In his Scientific Representation (2008), van Fraassen argues that measuring is a form of representation. In fact, every measurement pinpoints its target in accordance with specific operational rules within an already-constructed theoretical space, in which certain conceptual interconnections can be represented. Reichenbach’s 1920 account of coordination is particularly interesting in this connection. Even though recent reassessments of this account do not do full justice to some important elemen…Read more

105Relativizing the relativized a priori: Reichenbach’s axioms of coordination dividedSynthese 181 (1): 41-62. 2011.In recent years, Reichenbach's 1920 conception of the principles of coordination has attracted increased attention after Michael Friedman's attempt to revive Reichenbach's idea of a "relativized a priori". This paper follows the origin and development of this idea in the framework of Reichenbach's distinction between the axioms of coordination and the axioms of connection. It suggests a further differentiation among the coordinating axioms and accordingly proposes a different account of Reichenb…Read more

134Genidentity and Topology of Time: Kurt Lewin and Hans ReichenbachIn Nikolay Milkov & Volker Peckhaus (eds.), The Berlin Group and the Philosophy of Logical Empiricism, Springer. pp. 97--122. 2013.In the early 1920s, Hans Reichenbach and Kurt Lewin presented two topological accounts of time that appear to be interrelated in more than one respect. Despite their different approaches, their underlying idea is that time order is derived from specific structural properties of the world. In both works, moreover, the notion of genidentity--i.e., identity through or over time--plays a crucial role. Although it is well known that Reichenbach borrowed this notion from Kurt Lewin, not much has been …Read more

85Hans Reichenbach. The Concept of Probability in the Mathematical Representation of Reality. Trans. and ed. Frederick Eberhardt and Clark Glymour. Chicago: Open Court, 2008. Pp. xi+154. $34.97 (review)Hopos: The Journal of the International Society for the History of Philosophy of Science 1 (2): 344-347. 2011.Hans Reichenbach has been not only one of the founding fathers of logical empiricism but also one of the most prominent figures in the philosophy of science of the past century. While some of his ideas continue to be of interest in current philosophical programs, an important part of his early work has been neglected, and some of it has been unavailable to English readers. Among Reichenbach’s overlooked (and untranslated) early works, his doctoral thesis of 1915, The Concept of Probability in th…Read more
