摘要
"如何认识否定性事实"是一个哲学难题。在梅农的对象理论中,否定性事实是虚存的。罗素和维特根斯坦在早期都认为否定性事实是存在的,然而这受到了一些学者的批评。面对这些争议,巴克和杰戈从"因果关系"、"构成关系"、"感知性"这三个方面论证了否定性事实和肯定性事实一样也是存在的。但是,巴克和杰戈却忽视了这两类事实的一个重要关联:否定性事实是依附于肯定性事实而存在的。
How to understand negative facts has always been a puzzle in philosophy. In Meinong' s object theory, negative facts subsist. Russell and Wittgenstein were positive about negative facts in their early time, but the view that negative facts exist was also criticized by some scholars. On this controversial topic, Stephen Barker and Mark Jago demonstrate the existence of negative facts from three aspects:constitution and perception, causation. However Stephen Barker and Mark Jago have overlooked a key point that the existence of negative facts depend on the exist- ence of positive facts.
