I then attempt to develop an analogous position regarding the applicability of concepts to reality in response to the skeptical problem regarding how we can cognize an objective reality through human-constructed concepts. If all concepts meeting certain minimal conditions structure reality under some aspect, then objective knowledge is possible, regardless of how these concepts arose historically.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div>}, number={1}, journal={Stance: an international undergraduate philosophy journal}, author={Phillips-Gary, Micah}, year={2021}, month={Apr.}, pages={53–65} }
