- “Meaning in Trouble”
- In this papaer, I argue that extension, as traditionally conceived, is not generalizable in the sense required for philosophically fundamental concepts. This yields a dilemma: either abandon the generalizability of the concept or give up the philosophical fundamentality of it. I propose a third route by combining Carnap’s idea of extension with a Leibnizian notion of equivalence defined as the predicational equivalence. This proposal implies a view identifying extension with properties, which provides a uniform, generalizable notion of extension.
