Sutton’s Solution to the Grounding Problem and Intrinsically Composed Colocated Objects

Abstract

espanolEn Sutton 2012, Catherine Sutton presenta una nueva e interesante solucion al mayor problema al que se enfrenta el co-ubicacionismo (colocationism): el problema de la fundamentacion. Sin embargo, si es correcto rechazar (como se defiende en este articulo) la tesis defendida por Sutton segun la cual los trozos o pedazos de materia estan extrinsecamente compuestos, entonces su respuesta al problema de la fundamentacion resulta incompleta. Ademas, es dificil ver como podria completarse. EnglishIn Sutton 2012, Catherine Sutton offers a new and very interesting solution to the most challenging problem facing colocationism: the grounding problem. However, if I am right in rejecting her thesis that lumps or pieces of matter are extrinsically composed, then her proposal is no longer a complete answer to the grounding problem, and it is difficult to see how it might be supplemented.
