Since immemorial times, persons have been engaged in disputes in
metaphysics. This book reacts to this fact by supporting five
theses. Thesis 1 is that disputes are micro-wars that have a
significant social importance; they involve conflicting parties who
may resort to some kind of violence and depend on normative
factors. Thesis 2 is that disputes can be approached from
right-wing or left-wing stances. Thesis 3 is that the grounds for
endorsing an approach to a dispute are problematic starting points
that may be rationally rejected. Thesis 4 is that disputes have an
incommensurable greatness. Thesis 5 is that right-wing approaches
to disputes may be less appealing than the left-wing one championed
by the book for those who endorse that one is to avoid expressing
"subtle" violence. This is the violence expressed by those who
suggest that others who disagree with one's criteria to deal with
disputes fall short of logos or act as if such others did not
exist.
