“…See alsoBabic and Cocco (2020).18 As I said, after introducing the topic through Adams's question, Adams himself crucially shapes his analysis around the topic of thisness. According to that analysis, a Haecceitist holds that at least some things have primitive (i.e., non-qualitative) thisness.…”

Anti-Haecceitism and Fundamentality

Is everything about reality either qualitative or somehow determined by the qualitative character of reality itself? Metaphysical anti-Haecceitism is often taken to be the claim that this is the case, and to entail that reality is fundamentally qualitative. In this paper, I (1) argue against the idea that metaphysical anti-Haecceitism should be characterized in such terms, and (2) defend a novel way to phrase such a view. This will be done by taking the main arguments for anti-Haecceitism as a guide and by singling out the proper commitments of a view that satisfies the desideratum set forth by such arguments. The phrasing I shall offer will help tell the issue of anti-Haecceitism apart from some concerns about fundamentality that, I will contend, are orthogonal to it—among them, the question whether there is fundamentality at all.
