NOMINALISM AS A FRAMEWORKA FRAMEWORK FOR INTERPRETING LIFE .

Nominalism says “universals or general ideas are mere names without any corresponding reality. Only particular objects exist. Properties, numbers, and sets are mere features of the way of considering the things that exist. 

Page 13: Realism with Realia

Nominalism contends “only particular objects exist” and they provide scaffolding.

Page 14: Realism with Realia

NOMINALISM AS SCAFFOLDINGSUPPORTS METAPHYSICS.

Nominalism is a metaphysical framework.

General or abstract terms and predicates exist, while universals or abstract objects, which often correspond to these terms, do not exist.

In a Nominalist World, abstract objects do not exist.

Page 16: Realism with Realia

NOMINALISM AND WARPOWERS THE INHUMANITY OF WAR.

Nominalism denies the real being of universals on the ground that the use of a general word (e.g., “humanity”) does not imply the existence of a general thing named by it. The nominalist position does not necessarily deny, however, that there must be some similarity between the particular things to which the general word is applied.
