Rory Harder is a philosopher notable for his work on consistency and compatibility in the process of scientific change.
Theories
The following table contains all the theories formulated by Harder:
| Title | Type | Formulation | Formulated In |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Zeroth Law (Harder-2015) | Descriptive | At any moment of time, the elements of the scientific mosaic are compatible with each other. | 2015 |
| Compatibility Exists | Descriptive | There is such a thing as compatibility. | 2015 |
Questions
Here are all the questions formulated by Harder:
- Associations of Compatibility: How is the class of compatibility associated with other classes (and itself)? What aggregation, composition, or other association relations can exist between instances of compatibility, as well as between compatibility and instances of other classes?
- Compatibility: What is compatibility? How should it be defined?
- Disjointness of Compatibility: What other classes is the class of compatibility disjoint with, i.e. classes that don't share any instances with compatibility?
- Existence of Compatibility: Does compatibility exist?
- Mechanism of Compatibility: Under what conditions can two elements coexist in the same mosaic?
- Subtypes of Compatibility: What are the subtypes of compatibility?
- Supertypes of Compatibility: What are the supertypes of compatibility?
- Tautological Status of The Second Law (Barseghyan-2015): Is Barseghyan's original second law a tautology?
