In M. Suárez, M. Dorato & M. Rédei (eds.), EPSA07: Launch of the European Philosophy of Science Association. Springer (2009)
| Abstract | I will sketch a possible way of empirical/operational definition of space and time tags of physical events, without logical or operational circularities and with a minimal number of conventional elements. As it turns out, the task is not trivial; and the analysis of the problem leads to a few surprising conclusions. | |||||||||
