Conditions de possibilité et effets de limitation dans les théories et les modèles

Abstract

Today’s scientific positivity is fitted to the mediation of writing : what is not supposed to be accessed to in writing cannot be constituted as an object of positive knowledge. This mediation occurs in the sciences implying observations and measurements as well as in mathematics and information processing. In the particular case of predictive models, I study some fundamental consequences of this mediation : what on one side can be comprehended as a condition of possibility, can on the other side be deciphered as a limitation effect.
