Funded Activity Summary

Spacetime: its metaphysical type, its reality, its methodological role in philosophy. Australian philosophy has a high standing both among academic disciplines in this country and internationally. Studies in metaphysics are at its core. The tradition of excellent Australian work in the area of space and time, beginning with Samuel Alexanders's Space Time and Deity,1920, has lapsed somewhat and needs to be revitalised and extended in this century. This project builds on that tradition and extends it both in the direction of the philosophy of science of space and time, of pure metaphysics and its methodology.
