Emergence or Supervenient Epifenomenal Ontology?
Havlík, Vladimír
The article deals with a theory of emergence and her role in the contemporary estimation of the theory of complexity. The main focus is layed on the "ontological emergence" and on the development of the theory of emergence from the "British emergentism" to the recent approaches. This article tries to prove inconclusiveness of Kim's arguments against the possibility of ontological emergence.

Games and the meaning of logical connectives
Majer, Ondrej
The main topic of the article is different understanding of logical connectives in logical systems (this is demonstrated on classical, intuitionistic and linear logic). The article focuses on the question how are the differences between the connectives captured in the game interpretation of the corresponding logical systems and on the adequacy of the game thoretical framework for characterising these differences.

Norms
Svoboda, Vladimír

What is semantics?
Peregrin, Jaroslav
The traditional, Carnap's definition of semantics declares semantics to be the study of the relations between expressions and extralinguistic entities (while syntax is the the study of the relations among expressions and pragmatics is the study of the relations between expressions and their users). The paper argues that this definition is useless and proposes another one: semantics is the study of the 'basic' rules for using expressions (while syntax is the study of which expressions are used and pragmatics is the study of the residual aspects of their use).

Syntetické pojmy a priori
Duží, M. ; Materna, Pavel
Concepts are explicated as objective procedures ("constructions" in transparent intensional logic). All mathematical concepts are a priori. Analytic mathematical concepts are effective procedures that compute some recursive functions. Synthetic mathematical concepts either identify a non-recursive function or identify a recursive function in a non-effective way. There are more synthetic concepts a priori than analytic concepts a priori.
