THE PROBLEMS OF IDENTITY IN METAPHYSICS: QUALITATIVE IDENTITY

Abstract

The article outlines two types of identity in metaphysics: qualitative and numerical. The notion of change and its interpretation in the conceptions of three-dimensional and four-dimensional ontology are characterized. The study considers the difference between real changes and “Cambridge” ones. The paper highlights the possibility of the existence of qualitative identity in the concept of reflexive identity, suggested by P. Geach.
