A new paper for the new year: "Ontological Anti-Realism". This is a descendant of my talk on "Ontological Indeterminacy" from the 2005 ANU Metametaphysics conference. The paper is destined to appear in the collection Metametaphysics: New Essays on the Foundations of Ontology (Oxford University Press, forthcoming), which I'm co-editing with David Manley and Ryan Wasserman, and which will include the six papers from the ANU conference along with six others. In the meantime, I'll be giving the paper at a conference on ontology in Arizona later this month, and at another metametaphysics conference in Idaho at the end of March. The current version is still a rough draft, and comments are welcome.

Early point of reflection: In a discussion of, say, ontology or metaphysics, is it appropriate to invoke metaontology or metametaphysics? I have always assumed yes, but not everyone is happy with that.

Dear professor Chalmers,
You are tagged! There is a virtual tag-game going on in the blog-osphere, and now it is your turn to tell five intriguing things about yourself or your blog and tag five other people to do the same.
My five confessions you find here: http://stijnsfilo-blog.filosofie.be/index.php?/archives/72-Uitgetikt.html (they're in dutch but if you want I can translate them for you :-) )
Greetings,
Stijn

Teeny-weeny note:
In the bibliography there's a reference to Putnam's (2004) "Ethics without Ontology", but it's missing in the main text...
