14Ontological relativity and conceptual analysis as theoretical frameworks for epistemic injustice: Exploring applicationsMetaphilosophy 55 (2): 264-279. 2024.This article introduces a novel theoretical framework for addressing epistemic injustice—a phenomenon where certain groups or individuals are systematically excluded from knowledge creation and dissemination processes—by employing ontological relativity and conceptual analysis. “Ontological relativity” refers to a philosophical perspective that posits our understanding of reality as being shaped by our toolbox of concepts, categories, language, and social practices; “conceptual analysis” is a me…Read more

28A Proposed Taxonomy of Realism in Conceptual FrameworksEuropean Journal of Pragmatism and American Philosophy 13 (1). 2021.One of the complications of a clear evaluation of different positions called “realism” in metaphysics and ontology is discrepancy in terminology and variance of basic intuitions inherent this notion.

A remarkable example of the ap…Read more

36Resemblance, Exemplification, and OntologyAmerican Philosophical Quarterly 55 (2): 131-140. 2018.According to the quantificational Quinean model in meta-ontology, the question of ontology boils down to the question of whether a sortal property is exemplified. I address some complications that arise when we try to build a philosophical reconstruction of the link between individuals and kinds displayed in the exemplification relation from the point of view of conceptualism about kinds and having in mind this stand in ontology. I distinguish two notions of resemblance, object-to- object and ob…Read more
