PERSP Metaphysics Wiki

This is the wiki of the PERSP B1 Workpackage “Issues in Metaphysics”, which focuses on indeterminacy/truthmakers/grounding. The full description of the WP is available here.

Coordinator: Dan López de Sa

One of the main activities of this workpackage is a weekly seminar, where “local” and external speakers present their work in progress, mainly on topics related to indeterminacy/truthmakers/grounding, with drafts distributed in advance, so that we devote most of the slot to extensive discussion of the pre-read material.

We meet Friday afternoons, from 15:00 to 17:00. If you'd like to participate, please get in touch with the convenor, Dan López de Sa.

[Provisional, changes may occur.]

Past sessions are available here.
