“…Meanwhile, the third category of semantic relations, namely polysemy as stated by Allwood (2003), Biederman (2017), Hjørland (2007, Hughes et al(2007), Jackendoff (2006), Jackson (2014) was not found in the naming places in the West Coast of Sumatra. This finding supports that the West coast of Sumatra in the four provinces construct names from the same word or are synonymous to have the meaning.…”

“…In line with Pateda, (Gorys Keraf, 2009a) states that what is meant by lexical structure are the various semantic relations contained in the word. Allwood (2003), Biederman (2017), Hjørland (2007, Hughes et al (2007), Jackendoff (2006), Jackson (2014) categorize the meaning relation into three synonym meaning relations, antithymic meaning relations, and polysemic meaning relations. These three semantic relations are basically found in naming places.…”

This study aims to describe types of meanings and identify the semantic relations of place names, as well as explains the migration in Minangkabau on the West Coast of Sumatra. A qualitative research was used where sources of data were taken from interview, Focus Group Discussion (FGD), and documents. The interview and FGD were conducted to society figures, community leaders and government officials. The documents include the names of 22 sub-districts in 11 districts from four provinces, written sources, and other relics related to the names. The findings show that the place names provide knowledge about the relations of the meaning and socio-cultural values. The relation among the meanings of the place names includes synonymy and antonym that reflects the migration of Minangkabau in West Coast of Sumatra. The results also indicated that toponymy studies are very important because the naming of places has not received attention among the communities and has not been a study of interest.

“…There, instruments were used, not as a means for reducing deontic operators, but as a refinement for talking about instruments that are obligatory or forbidden. An alternative approach is that of BDI (Belief-Desire-Intention) logic see Meyer et al (2015) due to its connection to means-end reasoning (see also Hughes et al (2007)). However, such logics do not fully accommodate the required distinction between actions and outcomes as in van Berkel and Pascucci (2018).…”

Centered around the analysis of the prescriptive portion of the Vedas, the Sanskrit philosophical school of Mīmāṃsā provides a treasure trove of normative investigations. We focus on the leading Mīmāṃsā authors Prabhākara, Kumārila and Maṇḍana, and discuss three modal logics that formalize their deontic theories. In the first part of this paper, we use logic to analyze, compare and clarify the various solutions to the śyena controversy, a two-thousand-year-old problem arising from seemingly conflicting commands in the Vedas. In the second part, the formalized Mīmāṃsā theories are analyzed and employed to provide alternative perspectives on well-known paradoxes from the contemporary field of deontic logic. Thus, we go from logic to Mīmāṃsā and back again.

“…Concerning these matters, the philosophy of technology arguably can profi t much from what goes on in logic and, increasingly, technical off-spring areas like artifi cial intelligence, where many 'logics of action' have been developed. Examples of what introducing logical expertise to well-known problem areas in technology has to offer are the analysis of means-ends reasoning (Hughes et al 2007 ) and of the assignment of responsibility in situations where 'many hands' contribute to an end situation (de Lima and Royakkers 2015 ).…”

The Philosophy of Engineering and Technology book series provides the multifaceted and rapidly growing discipline of philosophy of technology with a central overarching and integrative platform. Specifi cally it publishes edited volumes and monographs in: the phenomenology, anthropology and socio-politics of technology and engineering the emergent fi elds of the ontology and epistemology of artifacts, design, knowledge bases, and instrumentation engineering ethics and the ethics of specifi c technologies ranging from nuclear technologies to the converging nano-, bio-, information and cognitive technologies written from philosophical and practitioners perspectives and authored by philosophers and practitioners. The series also welcomes proposals that bring these fi elds together or advance philosophy of engineering and technology in other integrative ways. Proposals should include: A short synopsis of the work or the introduction chapter. The proposed Table of Contents The CV of the lead author(s). If available: one sample chapter. We aim to make a fi rst decision within 1 month of submission. In case of a positive fi rst decision the work will be provisionally contracted: the fi nal decision about publication will depend upon the result of the anonymous peer reviewof the completemanuscript.We aim to have the completework peer-reviewed within 3months of submission. The series discourages the submission of manuscripts that contain reprints of previous published material and/or manuscripts that are below 150 pages / 75,000 words. For inquiries and submission of proposals authors can contact the editor-in-chief Pieter
