Department of Philosophy, Brooklyn College and the Graduate School, CUNY, 11210, Brooklyn, NY, USA aut Asymmetrical Analogical Arguments [Elektronische Daten] [J. Adler] Analogies must be symmetric. If a is like b, then b is like a. So if a has property R, and if R is within the scope of the analogy, then b (probably) has R. However, analogical arguments generally single out, or depend upon, only one of a or b to serve as the basis for the inference. In this respect, analogical arguments are directed by an asymmetry. I defend the importance of this neglected - even when explicitly mentioned - feature in understanding analogical arguments.
