No Case Against Disjunctive Properties.

Meinertsen has recently put forward three arguments against disjunctive properties: the arguments from truthmaking, commonality, and causation. In this paper, I argue that all three arguments fail. The argument from truthmaking rests on the problematic notion of different types of truthmakers and is therefore itself problematic. The argument from commonality may hold but only at the cost of losing much of the philosophical significance of its conclusion. The argument from causation essentially collapses into the argument from truthmaking and is therefore problematic for the same reason as the latter is. I conclude that Meinertsen has not made a case against disjunctive properties. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
