This volume examines the question "Do abstract objects exist?",
presenting new work from contributing authors across different
branches of philosophy. The introduction overviews philosophical
debate which considers: what objects qualify as abstract, what do
we mean by the word "exist" and indeed, what evidence should count
in favor or against the thesis that abstract objects exist. Through
subsequent chapters readers will discover the ubiquity of abstract
objects as each philosophical field is considered. Given the
ubiquitous use of expressions that purportedly refer to abstract
objects, we think that it is relevant to attend to the controversy
between those who want to advocate the existence of abstract
objects and those who stand against them. Contributions to this
volume depict positions and debates that directly or indirectly
involve taking one position or other about abstract objects of
different kinds and categories. The volume provides a variety of
samples of how positions for or against abstract objects can be
used in different areas of philosophy in relation to different
matters.
