The Quantum Revolution in Philosophy

Eddy Keming Chen
The Philosophical Review (2020) 129 (2): 302–308.
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1215/00318108-8012864
Published: 01 April 2020
...Eddy Keming Chen Healey thinks that Bell nonlocality becomes more digestible on the prescriptive view (chap. 4). Healey does not dispute Bell's proof as a demonstration of the existence of nonlocal correlations, that is, probabilities of events happening in region A may depend on events...

The Barest Flutter of the Smallest Leaf: Understanding Material Plenitude

Maegan Fairchild
The Philosophical Review (2019) 128 (2): 143–178.

.... Very roughly, the new condition I'll propose ( nonlocal closure ) looks not just at which patterns of properties are possible, but at how those patterns are spread through modal space. Here's a first pass at an objection to Merely Modal Plenitude: recall that being blue is among the neutral...

Published: 01 April 2015
... systems can exhibit the striking features we have come to associate with quantum physics—features such as entanglement, interference, and nonlocality. But as far as physics goes, such systems barely scrape the surface. In particular, they have only a finite number of degrees of freedom , which means...

Unfortunately, I don’t think Ney succeeds in giving a clear statement of the high-dimensional space she has in mind for quantum field theory. This is one place where her laudable goal of making the book intelligible...

Production and Necessity

Louis deRosset

... is instructive since ordinary tables do not seem vulnerable to the same sort of nonlocal, competi- tive interference. As far as making Abel from Elvis goes, it just doesn’t matter what you do with some other hunk of wood somewhere else in the universe. Make it into a table or don’t. As long as the second...

... the claim that FACT involves something abstract make FACT itself abstract? Does it make it nonlocal? This is not obvious, since despite involving abstract yellowness, FACT is still a matter of a spatiotemporal subject existing here-and-now instantiating a property here-and-now. Similarly, consider...

... are on an ontological par. Actual existence is a restric- tion of the most general notion of existence to a special case. Analo- gous views can be taken about space and time (Forbes 1989, 34–35). There might be a view that what exists is what exists locally, and nonlocal objects are things that somewhere else enjoy...
