intrinsicness

He visibly thought, although none knew the intrinsicness of his thinking as he stared at the gun of the fat pawnbroker and at the leprosy of Kwaque and

CHAPTER XV 2010

What is the relation between intrinsicness and naturalness?

Feminist Metaphysics Haslanger, Sally 2007

Their position is that we cannot understand contractions without understanding duplication, but if we understand duplication then intrinsicness can be easily defined, so Vallentyne's theory is no advance.

Intrinsic vs. Extrinsic Properties Weatherson, Brian 2006

Indeed, all combinatorial theories of intrinsicness do assume this, and further that the range of what is possible can be taken as given in crafting a theory of intrinsicness.

Dunn argues that the appropriate logic in which to formulate claims of intrinsicness and to investigate what consequences they have is the relevant logic R, and he provides some of the details of how this should be done.

Intrinsic vs. Extrinsic Properties Weatherson, Brian 2006

This local concept of intrinsicness might also do philosophical work; presumably the intrinsic value of an object depends on which properties it intrinsically possesses, not on which intrinsic properties it possesses.

George Molnar has claimed that the intrinsicness of dispositions "is one of the crucial appearances which has to be saved by an analysis" (Molnar 1999, p. 3), although in later work he retreats to the view that the intrinsicness of dispositions is a highly plausible empirical hypothesis.

Dispositions Fara, Michael 2006

Despite this two-way connection between intrinsicness and duplication, we do not yet have an analysis because the relevant concept of duplication can only be (easily) analysed in terms of intrinsic properties.

Intrinsic vs. Extrinsic Properties Weatherson, Brian 2006

George Molnar (2003) explicitly lists intrinsicness as one of the marks of dispositionality, and presumably the philosophers who have simply assumed that all dispositions are intrinsic would be amenable to the suggestion that it is constitutive of dispositions that they be intrinsic.

Dispositions Fara, Michael 2006

If we think that intrinsicness is not a property that makes such fine distinctions, then the relational/non-relational and intrinic/extrinsic distinctions are quite different, for they are distinctions between different kinds of things.
