COLL MARMOL, Jesús A.. Menos es más: davidson y el extravío del escéptico. Anal. filos. [online]. 2007, vol.27, n.2, pp.145-165. ISSN 1851-9636.

This article discusses what is the best way of understanding the antisceptical consequences of Davidson's approach to thought and language. It rejects that from such approach follows, with or without the help of an omniscient interpreter, a refutation of the sceptical position. It defends that Davidson's philosophy should be understood as a theoretical diagnosis of scepticism where Davidson's antirepresentacionalism plays a fundamental role. From this reading it would not follow a definitive refutation of the sceptical position, but it would be shown that this position is not compulsory by defending that scepticism depends on distinctive philosophical views that are far from obvious.

Keywords : Davidson; . Williams; Scepticism; Theoretical diagnosis.
