A Complexity Ladder for Big History
TODAY IN PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY: A Complexity Ladder for Big History
A paper of mine has just appeared in the Journal of Big History special issue on complexity. This paper isn’t specifically about philosophy of history, but it does touch on some philosophical problems, so I will consider some of these problems in the context of philosophy of history. In particular, I will discuss definitions and the use of scientific measurement in the increasing formalization of knowledge and what this could portend for history.
