Abstract Although particularism has come under a good deal of scrutiny in the last quarter of a century, particularizing it is not easy, since the arguments and positions advanced by those known as particularists vary considerably.

Philosophy, 1978
Arthur Prior is perhaps best known for his contributions to the philosophy of time. I shall argue here that his views about reference are not easily reconciled with his views about time, and suggest that his views about existence and his acceptance of some dubious Cartesian epistemological principles led him to increasingly bizarre and counter ...

Despite Rescher’s attempt to leave substance-ontology behind, Rescherian “processes” strongly resemble the “classical individuals” of the substance-ontological tradition- they are concrete, countable, particular and determinate entities. For this reason the suggested process-based approach to an ontological account of things shares crucial shortcomings
