Overview
The Problem of "The World" argues that large swaths of contemporary analytic philosophy are dominated by transcendental realism, which is essentially the denial or repression of the conditionedness of the sense we find in things, or make of them. On the basis of a close examination of a wide range of cases, Baz argues that transcendental realism ultimately amounts to no more than an empty gesture. His critique of transcendental realism reveals our sense-making as, precisely, conditioned, or situated, and shows that, and how, philosophers get themselves in philosophical trouble when they try to hold on to sense apart from its (worldly-historical) conditions.
