| Abstract |
Resumo: Neste artigo o autor apresenta cinco abordagens diferentes ao debate entre o platonismo e o nominalismo: (1) a quantificacional, (2) a reducionista, (3) a dependência da mente / linguagem, (4) a extensional versus intensional, (5) a hierárquica. Cada uma apresenta suas vantagens e desvantagens que devem ser discutidas em detalhe. Palavras-chave: existência, meta-metafísica, nominalismo, platonismo Abstract: In this paper I present five different approaches to the debate between Platonism and Nominalism: (1) the quantifier approach, (2) the reductionist approach, (3) the mind / language dependence approach, (4) the extension versus intension approach and (5) the hierarchichal approach. Each one has its advantages and disadvantages that have to be discussed in detail. Keywords: existence, metametaphysics, nominalism, platonism |
