Maps are often invoked as a way to understanding scientific modelling: a model represents its target as a map represents its territory. However, without an account of how maps represent this analogy is suggestive at best. We reverse the direction of explanation and show that maps represent like models.Utilising the DEKI account of representation, we provide an account of cartographic representation. This shows that maps and models indeed represent in the same manner, and it provides insight into two areas of philosophical inquiry, namely the nature of representational accuracy and the purpose relativity and historical situatedness of representations.

“…Sin contar con el par de contradictorias, no tiene caso hablar de proposición negativa o negación pictórica. Para resolver este inconveniente, propondré analizar la negación pictórica en contextos de razonamiento heterogéneos en los que se combinan premisas oracionales y premisas pictóricas (Aguilera 2021;Barwise y Etchemendy 1996). Como veremos, este análisis permite explicar tales dificultades como producto de ciertos rasgos clave de las representaciones pictóricas.…”

De acuerdo con Barceló, la posibilidad de la negación pictórica constituye una prueba a favor del externismo lógico porque no depende de encontrar elementos internos en las imágenes que expresan la negación. Propongo analizar la negación pictórica en contextos de razonamiento para mostrar cómo el contenido de una imagen se determina por relaciones lógicas externas. Para ello, propongo restringir el análisis del dominio completo de relaciones lógicas externas a contextos específicos de razonamiento. Lejos de rechazar la variante externista de Barceló, espero de esta forma poner a trabajar sus ideas.
