Present and explain Hempel’s “deductive-nomological model” of explanation.  What are the conditions of adequacy for D-N explanation?  What role do laws play in Hempel’s model?  What role does empirical evidence play?  Now explain Hempel’s “thesis of structural identity.” How are prediction and explanation related in Hempel’s model?  Now present and evaluate some of the objections to Hempel’s model.  What is the problem of “Koplik Spots”? The “Arsenic eater”? The birth-control case?  Do these problems refute Hempel’s view, in your opinion? Why or why not?  What might be added to Hempel’s view to make it less susceptible to these possible counterexamples?    Arts & Humanities Philosophy PHILOSOPHY 3344 Share QuestionEmailCopy link Comments (0)
