A theory of truth that argues that although we can say categorically that certain philosophical systems or propositions are false, we cannot say that any philosophical system is absolutely true or definite. Only that a plurality of philosophical systems - satisfying certain conditions - are legitimate in the sense of being anagogic to truth. Though manifesting incompleteness they have yet an intrinsic virtue of pointing beyond themselves to truth. The anagogic theory of truth must not be confused with relativism nor in particular Pyrrhonism in its most superficial reading.
A theory of meaning which depends upon a philosophy of mind. We argue that all meaning-bearing objects possess multiple layers of meaning which are apprehended by or act upon the mind simultaneously at many different layers. That modern western philosophy largely focused only on the mere shell of the meaning process and the most exterior aspect of meaning as a mental phenomenon. This tendency went into an even worse extreme with meaning-as-use theories, though paradoxically this tendency also presents a kind of distorted echo of hitherto deeper neglected aspects of meaning.
A theory of mind and and theory of knowledge based on Plotinus and Hegel. We can say that the problem with cartesian dualism is not that it was not physicalist but that it was not non-physicalist enough. On the other hand the history of science and the analysis of the concept of matter reveals it to be a fundamentally unclear and flawed concept. We freely acknowledge that great advances in physics may lead to a radical new view of the physical and chemical aspects of living beings.
A theory of analyticity and the a priori based on computability and Turing-completeness which categorically refutes mainstream philosophical logic while acknowledging the central role of a plurality of perspectives, incompleteness, mutual interpretation between formal systems and formal metatheory.
A philosophical logic based on an alternative graph-theoretic and combinatoric-computational abstraction of the logical mechanisms of natural language.
A philosophy of science which offers new perspectives on determinism, computability and the role of continuity and differentiability in science. We also point out the relevance of Hegel's Science of Logic to the recent history of mathematics and theoretical physics as well as to general systems theory.
In ethics a moral sense realism akin to Shapshay's interpretation of Schopenhauer but integrated with novel considerations regarding Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit as well as Hume and ancient advocates for animal rights. We also criticize current misreadings of Stoicism and strive to show the affinity between the self-cultivation promoted in the Pali canon and that of several schools of ancient philosophy.
In cultural and political theory we offer a critique of supremacy and superiority concepts and beliefs - the mismeasure of man - and take particular aim at the concepts of 'intelligence', 'race', values and institutions based on the accumulation of capital, and all ideological justifications of violence.
