Call for Papers

Special Issue of dialectica
The Metaphysics of Vectors

Guest editors: Philipp Keller, Stephan Leuenberger

Philosophical theorizing about the nature of properties has usually
focussed on examples that are all-or-nothing (red, square), and scalar
valued (mass, temperature). Properties with more complex values, such as
vectorial properties (velocity, field strength) have not received much
attention. To redress this imbalance, dialectica invites submissions for
publication in a special issue on the metaphysics of vectors in the
first half of 2009.
