Graham Priest has recently proposed a solution to the problem of the One and the Many which involves inconsistent objects and a non-transitive identity relation. We show that his solution entails either that the object "everything" is identical with the object "nothing" or that they are mutual parts; depending on whether Priest goes for an extensional or a non-extensional mereology.

Abstract
Graham Priest has recently proposed a solution to the problem of the One and the Many which involves inconsistent objects and a non-transitive identity relation. We show that his solution entails either that the object "everything" is identical with the object "nothing" or that they are mutual parts; depending on whether Priest goes for an extensional or a non-extensional mereology.File in questo prodotto:
