COULD WE LIVE IN NELSON GOODMAN’S WORLDS? THOUGHTS ON GOODMAN’S PLURALISM AND ITS RECONCEPTION OF PHILOSOPHY

The idea of ​​living in a world seems to be obvious. Only a skeptical person would deny that we live in one, or that we are able to say it. And it is precisely because of skepticism that the existence and knowledge about the external world has been a recurring topic in the history of philosophy. Nelson Goodman has confronted this problem and has offered a constructivist and pluralist solution. This article explains these key points of Goodman's epistemology, as well as his ontological pluralism. Subsequently, I explain how, according to the author, these philosophical positions would imply a reconception of classical concepts of philosophy. Finally, I criticize the Goodmanian thesis that we can live in different worlds simultaneously and reconsider the problem from the perspectivist approach of the authors Manuel Liz, Margarita Vázquez and Antti Hautamäki. La idea de vivir en un mundo parece ser obvia. Solamente una persona escéptica negaría que vivimos en uno, o siquiera que podamos afirmarlo. Y precisamente por el escepticismo es que la existencia y el conocimiento del mundo exterior ha sido un tópico recurrente en la historia de la filosofía. Nelson Goodman se ha enfrentado a este problema y ha ofrecido una solución constructivista y pluralista. En este artículo se explican estos puntos clave de la epistemología de Goodman, así como su pluralismo ontológico. Posteriormente, se explica como estas posturas filosóficas implicarían, de acuerdo con el autor, una reconcepción de conceptos clásicos de la filosofía. Finalmente, someto a crítica la tesis goodmaniana de que podamos vivir en mundos distintos simultáneamente y reconsidero el problema desde el enfoque perspectivista de los autores Manuel Liz, Margarita Vázquez y Antti Hautamäki.
