Kripkes kausale Theorie der Bezugnahme
In this paper we argue that Kripke's causal theory of reference does not provide necessary conditions for reference. For example, we show that Kripke's theory cannot explain that when interchanging two names also the referents of the two names are interchanged. Since these examples
of reference change are signifi- cantly different from Evans' examples of reference change, even Devitt's exten- sion of Kripke's theory cannot explain them. Concluding, we show that Evans' theory in (Evans, 1973; cf. 1985) and (Evans, 1982) provides a single explanation of both Evans' examples
and the examples of interchanged names.

- The journal Zeitschrift für philosophische Forschung, appearing since 1946, is among the most important academic German language journals. It is open to all topics, approaches, and positions of philosophical thought. Given the increasing differentiation and specialization of the field, it thus constitutes a forum offering its various disciplines the opportunity for mutual recognition and exchange. The articles published in it are subject to an anonymous peer review in which internationally renowned scholars of all areas of contemporary philosophical research participate.
Die seit 1946 erscheinende Zeitschrift für philosophische Forschung gehört zu den wichtigsten deutschsprachigen Fachzeitschriften und steht allen Themen, Richtungen und Positionen der philosophischen Forschung offen. Angesichts der zunehmenden Ausdifferenzierung und Spezialisierung des Faches bietet sie damit auch ein Forum, in dem die verschiedenen Teildisziplinen sich gegenseitig wahrnehmen und in ein gemeinsames Gespräch kommen können. Die in ihr publizierten Abhandlungen durchlaufen ein anonymes Begutachtungsverfahren, an dem international anerkannte Forscher aus allen Spezialgebieten der gegenwärtigen philosophischen Forschung beteiligt sind. - Editorial Board
