Overview

This analysis reconstructs ontologization's role in cognitive systems, exploring its implications for intersubjective reality and malfunction.

Key Points

  • This paper aims to reconstruct ontologization as a fundamental epistemic operation that facilitates cognitive understanding.
  • Functional analysis of ontologization in cognitive systems
  • Trace transitions from individual to intersubjective stabilization
  • Examine language's role as a layer of fixation
  • Ontologization transforms dynamic experiences into identifiable units of reference.
  • Intersubjective ontologization is achieved through joint attention and shared reference.
  • Malfunction occurs when functional posits of ontologization are absolutized, leading to misinterpretations of reality.
