| dc.description.abstract | In Chapter One I will outline how it is possible to construct reality in accordance with our ideas. The notion of fundamental constitutive rules will be seen to be central to this construction and the bulk of that chapter will be devoted to examining what such rules are and what they involve. They will be seen to involve a specific group of persons for each such rule or set of rules. That is, each such rule or set of rules is a rule or set of rules for, but not necessarily only for, a specifically delineated group of human beings. In the following chapters I will be concerned with demonstrating the scope of the notion of fundamental constitutive rules. Chapter Two concerns the limits of the notion and hence the limits of the notion of constructing reality. Chapter Three concerns the effects of the notion of fundamental constitutive rules on five conceptually related notions: alternate realities, conceptual systems, understanding, assessment and persons. In Chapter Four I will return to the fact that the notion of fundamental constitutive rules inescapably involves a specifically delineated group of persons and will attempt to demonstrate what this means both for those within and those without the delineated group. This demonstration will bring to light the fact that the notion of alternate realities is the key notion in this essay. In Chapter Five I will attempt to show that this notion is coherent by examining both the laws of thought and the notion of necessity. | |
