Abstract:
Human geographers are increasingly drawing upon a range of philosophical positions that espouse a more or less flat ontological approach for theorising a range of phenomena. These approaches differentiate between entities in terms of degree rather than kind in order to avoid essentialist, hierarchical or binary modes of thought. To achieve this, they understand the differences between entities as relational. Building upon these perspectives, this article offers a flat ontology that differentiates between things according to their form, which can be identified through a process of de-determinat

Abstract:
This commentary on James Ash’s ‘Flat Ontology and Geography’ makes three points. First, it notes the prominence of different versions of flat ontology in human geography and supports Ash’s attempt to make sense of how flat ontology thinking has impacted human geographical scholarship by working through a politically contested real-world case. Second, by framing Ash’s project as a ‘reality check’, the commentary engages in a critical assessment of what added value flat ontological approaches, Tristan Garcia’s thinking included, may have to offer to our understanding of the non-flat world of val

Abstract:
This commentary is a response to James Ash’s ‘Flat Ontology and Geography’, one of the first serious efforts to make use of the philosophy of Tristan Garcia for social science purposes. After reviewing some key distinctions between different kinds of flat ontology, I suggest that both Ash and Garcia make a step forward while failing to strike the desired balance between interconnected networks and autonomous units.

Abstract:
In this commentary, I respond to Engelmann, Häkli, Harman and McCormack’s reading of my article, ‘Flat ontology and geography’. In doing so, I argue that a flat ontology of form developed in the article is only a starting point for analysis rather than a fully-fledged theory. In turn, I reflect on how the notion of form can be further developed to identify and analyse mechanisms of inequality that lead to a range of issues for all manner of humans and non-humans.

Abstract:
Enormous amount of available data in relational database (RDB) format creates a demand for automatic transforming them into OWL ontology to reuse in the Semantic Web. Many approaches have been proposed, however, most of them simply generate output ontology as the same flat structure with the original database and result in redundancy of ontology data. As an attempt to resolve the redundant problem, we propose a novel approach to generate OWL ontology from relational database while focusing on the similarity measure of duplicate attributes in relational tables. Experimental results show that th

Abstract:
The article concerns the material developed by the French sociologist and philosopher Bruno Latour. On the example of a number of works belonging to the field of researches called actor-network theory, the author, not setting out to consider the entire theoretical project of Latour on redefining the ontological foundations of social science, undertakes only an attempt to describe the ontology created by the French researcher. The author analyzes a number of key theoretical principles in the concept of Bruno Latour, which are intimately associated with certain ontological assumptions. Considera
