Abstract

En su libro Time´s Arrow and Archimedes’ Point, Huw Price critica los argumentos de algunos cosmólogos contemporáneos acerca del origen cosmológico de la flecha del tiempo, quienes supuestamente no logran adoptar un punto de vista atemporal. En este artículo se analizan las críticas de Price a la propuesta de Stephen Hawking, argumentando que, si bien la estrategia atemporal de Price es una propuesta valiosa, sus conclusiones finales descansan en supuestos cuestionables. El objetivo final consiste en destacar los aspectos conceptuales que deben considerarse al abordar el problema de la flecha del tiempo en cosmología desde un punto de vista atemporal.

In his Time's Arrow and Archimedes' Point, Huw Price criticizes the arguments of some contemporary cosmologists about the cosmological origin of the arrow of time, who supposedly fail to adopt an atemporal viewpoint. In this article we analyze Price's criticisms to Hawking's “no boundary” condition, by arguing that his conclusions rest on certain assumptions questionable from a scientific viewpoint. This task opens the way to a global and non-entropic approach to the arrow of time, which allows for a new dialogue with Price's proposal.
