The Fruits of Phenomenalism: A Comment on Michael Pelczar’s Phenomenalism: A Metaphysics of Chance and Experience

  • Louis deRosset

摘要

Michael Pelczar’s book is a clear and well written defense of the titular idea, according to which material reality is constituted by possibilities for experience. I will urge that phenomenalism faces a demarcation problem concerning how to distinguish those possible experiences that constitute material objects from those that do not. I will then argue that Pelczar has not yet provided the resources to solve this demarcation problem.
