실체 유물론과 인과 결정론이 개인의 자유와 동일성을 실질적으로 열어주려면 사건 원인 외에 행위자 원인의 여지를 허용해야 한다. 그 두 가지 원인은 법칙적 일반적 결정의 개념과 합리적 개성적 결정의 개념을 지니고 있다. 개성의 인과적 역할은 법칙화할 수 없는 물질성의 여지를 남긴다. 바로 그 가능성이 인간의 자유와 동일성의 실질적 복권의 가능성이다.

이 논문은 매디가 왜 수학적 실재론을 포기하고 그녀 특유의 수학적 자연주의를 표방하게 되었는지를 탐구하려 한다. 이 문제에 관하여 널리 받아들여지고 있는 한 가설에 따르면, 매디의 입장 변화는 콰인-퍼트남 필수불가결성 논증을 비판하고 포기함으로써 야기되었다. 필자는 이 가설이 지닌 설득력을 인정하지만, 그것만으로는 실재론의 포기의 충분한 이유가 될 수 없다고 생각하며, 그 대신 과학과 수학의 유비 문제가 매디의 입장 변화를 이해하는 데 더 나은 조망을 제공한다는 점을 보여주고자 한다. 이를 위해서는 콰인과 괴델에 크게 빚졌던 실재론자 시절 매디의 사유가 얼마만큼 수학과 과학의 유비에 지배되었는지를 살펴보아야 하는 동시에, 왜 매디가 이 유비를 포기함으로써 실재론을 포기하게 되는지를 이해하여야 한다. 아울러 이 유비의 포기에 대한 다소의 비판적 검토를 통해 매디의 수학적 존재론의 지적 여정을 왜 필자가 존재론적 퇴보라 믿는지에 대한 몇 가지 이유가 시사될 것이다.

의식에 관한 가장 흥미 있는 최근의 과학적 작업들 중 철학적으로 문제가 되는 다수는 시각으로부터 나왔으며 그 중 특히 맹시 현상은 심리철학에 있어서 의식, 지각, 그리고 지향성의 개념에 문제를 제기한다. 맹시 환자들은 후두엽 피질의 두뇌 손상으로 인하여 생긴 암점(Scotoma) 때문에 현상적으로 의식적인 과정을 경험할 수 없으면서도 그들의 보이지 않는시야 영역에 대하여 보통 시각을 가진 사람들과 상당히 비슷하게 기능을 발휘한다. 이러한현상은 의식이 행동을 제어하는 데에 과연 인과적 역할을 하는지에 대한 문제들, 심리철학에서 뿌리깊게 논의되어왔던 의식의 기능과 부현상론에 대한 문제를 제기한다. 즉, 맹시 현상은 현상적 의식이 실재하지 않는 것이거나, 존재하더라도 어떤 인과적 효력을 가지지 않는 부수현상적인 것이라는 견해를 강하게 지지하는 것 같다. 이와 함께 인간과 동일한 물리적 구성과 행동을 가지지만 의식적 경험을 결여하는 피조물인 좀비(zombie)의 이론적 가능성이 제기된다. 이를 지지하기 위해서 초맹시(super-blindsight)의 개념과 사례가 제안된다. 이 논문은 맹시 현상을 통해서 현상적 의식의 실재성을 부정하려는 논변들을 반박하고, 의식은 행위의 수행에 관련될 뿐만 아니라 인지에 있어서 중요한 역할을 한다고 논한다. 따라서, 역설적으로 맹시 사례가 오히려 현상적 의식이 인과적 역할을 가진다는 감각질 실재론의 견해를 지지할 수 있다고 논증할 것이다.

Science and technology policy a lot of implicit usjustified assumptions. These assumption without being reflected may cause various social problems. In this paper, lit is shown that philosophy of science could make contribution to resolving these problems. In epistemological viewpoints, theory of science and technology policy has been analyzed. I argue that social kinds, social entities appeared in social science should be interpreted realisticaly. Realizing this realistic interpretation of social kinds, as one field of social sciences, theory of science and technology policy can deal with the causal relation among social entities and the causal influence of science and technology policy more objectively- scientific knowledge has two components. One belongs to coded knowledge and the other belong to tacit knowledge which cannot be coded. I analyze the content and characters of tacit knowledge appeling to Michael Polany. One of the important function of science and technology policy is to make tacit knowledge more fruitful. I argue that philosophy of science fit well this function. Finally I claim that philosophy of science can help science and technology policy to reduce the ethical problems caused by science and technology.

The concept of virtue seems to be one of the rare cases where the European and the Chinese traditions coincide. The meaning of the Latin word virtus and of Greek $aret{\acute{e}}$ seems to be similar to the Chinese $d{\acute{e}}$德. Most striking in virtue is that it is a capacity for self-realisation through action which is unique to man. On the other hand, there is something physical about it. It is the strength to do something. This strength overcomes the resistance of what is naturally given, it transforms the world, turns the natural world into a human one. In the Chinese tradition, $d{\acute{e}}$ 德, i.e. virtue, is therefore always connected with $da{\grave{o}}$ 道, the totality of natural forces. In the Chinese tradition, as opposed to the European one, virtue is itself considered to be a natural force that is present in man. This force sustains man's connectedness, unity and harmony with the surrounding world. Things exist through the unity of principle理 and ether氣. But the knowledge of this unity is due to principle. Moral and legal norms are shifted totally to the sphere of principle. Therefore their have found the final dissolution from a heroic models. Above all the classical Confucians, but also the other schools, would reply to this that there is nothing more precise than a concrete successful action. Its result fits the world perfectly. The difference is due to the differing interest of ethical thought. In the case of the Confucians the path is more direct. The actor establishes a precise pattern for other actions. Education therefore lies in detailed knowledge about forms of behaviour, not so much in conceptual differentiation. It is quite possible that generalisation may be a methodical prerequisite for success in this endeavour. That problem, too, is discussed. But the success of conceptualisation lies in the successful performance of individual actions, not in shaping actions in accordance with normative concepts.

Mental represention as an empirical fact raises certain ontological problems regarding both the subject and the object of representation, that is,the existence of the mimd and that of the represented world. Propsitional attitudes, for instance, presuppose the subject of such inguistic representation, as well as the propositional fact reffered. But the ontological status of the reference is an open question. Mental representations as events also present problems of ontology. How mental events interact wiht physical events, how they are related with neural events,and in what way mental events are functionally autonomous,and such are the problems remaining to be answered. The world of mental representation may be seen as a theoretical world,of which the ontological status depends on the progress in the corresponding empirical science,that is,neuroscience. But the problem of realism in the philosophy of science is still an issue of debate. These,then are philosophical issues related to the ontological status of mental representation. Their solutions,or approaches to them,however, must waite for the further progress in cognitive science,which has philosophy as a humble participant among other disciplines.

Action games exhibit all the specific constellation of masochism, such as disavowal, suspense, waiting, fetishism, and fantasy. These characteristics of action games can be analyzed with respect to masochism. This study conducted an analysis excluding sadism as much as possible, as sadism is a result of etiological misconception as opposed to masochism. However, comparative analysis is included in the study so that action games are not seen as demonstrating sadism. Games create a space for virtual interaction for main agents by connecting gamer-existence and game-character in the framework of a contract. The interaction of visual tactility within this space creates a system of difference in pleasure. Masochism enables one to attain pleasure in a world created himself or herself using fetishism in contractual relationships such as the ones exhibited in games. This shows that action games and masochism are mutually related. This paper analyzed the ontology of action games using actual examples of action games. The paper concluded that action games lead to the fulfillment of masochistic pleasure.

Yeoncheon Hong Seok-joo(淵泉 洪奭周: 1774-1842) faithfully followed a policy of restoration of literary style of king Jeongjo. He was an young vassal after 1794 and influenced by Jeongjo because Yeoncheon was around the king. Furthermore, he had comparatively favorable working period as a vassal(仕宦期, 1795-1836) after death of Jeongjo(1800) while establishing his own academic viewpoint. Therefore, a study about art theory of Yeoncheon Hong Seok-joo is one about logical system to accept various desires for change of then while not getting rid of scope of Neo-Confucianism after Jeongjo. It is catched that exchange of Hong Seok-joo and Jeong Yak-yong was made relating to study of Sangseo. Hong Seok-joo and Jeong Yak-yong absorbed in study of Sangseo, which is come from putting importance on 6 scriptures (經) among studies of scriptures by both of them. Through this, they aimed to re-discover ideology of original Confucian studies as one for cultivating oneself and governing people (修己治人之學). Dasan and Yeoncheon have something in common that they were young vassals who were cultivated as a guarding power for Jeongjo centered on Gyujanggak. They were largely fit to view of literature(文體觀) of Jeongjo. Hong Seok-joo distinguished function of prose(文) and poetry(詩) into teaching moral(明敎) and moving people(感人) in the category of Mun-yi-jae-do(文以載道) based on thoughts of 'literature is linguistic device for Taoism '(道本文末)' which is a core concept of literature theory based on Neo-Confucianism. He gave a careful attention on instructional and social function in prose while on emotional understanding that puts importance on temper and the secrets of nature in poetry. Hong Seok-joo regarded moral impression and edification through this as a core of artistic creation based on Segyoseol(世敎說). Furthermore, expressions such as 'Heunggwangunwon(興觀群怨)' or 'Yeohangguyo(閭巷謳謠) which are mentioned as important elements in his artistic works put importance on actual existence of objective things in artistic activity and this is connected to an attitude to require description fit to fact. So, it is assumed that such expression style aimed for features of genre painting in painting arts. Understanding of the study of ancient documents by Yeoncheon developed from critical perspective. He criticized the study of ancient documents, saying it as first, Pasoijisul(破碎之術), second, Dotaekjisul(塗澤之術), third, Hoimojisul(毁侮之術). Jeong Yak-yong criticized ' theory on the Odes' from viewpoint of theory of Mun-yi-jae-do(文以載道) based on Neo-Confucianism. He stressed political and social function of Sipeon and general poetry in "the Odes" and reinterprets discourses about poetry of Zhu Xi based on his own opinion. He says that poems of national fashion do political and social criticism. The theory of national fashion by Jeong Yak-yong clearly discloses his thoughts that stress practical role of noblemen in the social and political context.
