摘要:自然动力学在进化过程中表现出来,是指物质物体以目前的渐进方式运动。在目前的渐进模式中,任何相互作用的物质实体都必须对其他人有感觉,因为不可能有全球机构以全球同步的方式协调它与其他人。内在主义者的观点,或虫眼的观点,主要指现在的进行模式,使当地的物质实体,或大或小,受制于以当地现在完成时记录的邻里事件的当地表征之间不可避免的不一致。任何经历这种不一致的有知觉的物质身体随后都会将自己转变为一个没有不一致的表征。内在论立场所特有的描述方案是内在的和动态的,因为它不断努力更新构成的局部表征,试图消除存在于先前局部表征中的任何不一致。与基于笛卡尔认识论分裂的对不变共性的外部描述相比,内部描述是对动力学的补充,内部描述是一种体现自然动力学的语言手段,即使没有求助于被称为力的概念。这使得我们的语言足够强大,足以将物质物体的自然动力学包含在经验领域中。
Abstract: Natural dynamics, as manifested in evolutionary processes, refer to material bodies in movement in the present progressive mode. Any interacting material body in the present progressive mode must be sentient to others because there can be no global agency coordinating it to others in a globally synchronous manner. The internalist perspective, or the worm's eye view, referring primarily to the present progressive mode, renders local material bodies, large or small, subject to an inevitable inconsistency among local representations of neighborhood events registered in the local present perfect tense. Any sentient material body experiencing this inconsistency subsequently transforms itself into an inconsistency‐free representation. The descriptive scheme unique to the internalist stance is internal and dynamic in the sense that it constantly strives to update constituent local representations, attempting to eliminate any inconsistencies residing within antecedent local representations. Compared to external descriptions of invariable universals grounded upon the Cartesian epistemic split, which are complementary to dynamics, internal description serves as a linguistic means of embodying natural dynamics even without recourse to the notion called forces. This makes our language powerful enough to enclose natural dynamics of material bodies in the empirical domain.
