Time-Travel and Multi-Location Endurance.
Multi-location Endurance claims that an object persists through spacetime if it is exactly located at two or more different temporally unextended spacetime regions. However, this version of Endurance theory is said to be at odds with core axioms of Classical Extensional Mereology, namely, Transitivi...

However, this version of Endurance theory is said to be at odds with core axioms of Classical Extensional Mereology, namely, Transitivity, Antisymmetry, and Weak Supplementation. In particular, some have claimed [Effingham and Robson (2007), Kleinschmidt (2011)] that given the possibility of time-travel, one could construct cases in which multi-located enduring things would seemingly violate such principles. My aim in this paper is to provide a comprehensive defence of Multi-location Endurance from these objections and draw some systematic conclusions about the relation between Mereology and metaphysical theories. El endurantismo multi-locacional sostiene que un objeto persiste a través del espaciotiempo solo si se localiza en dos o más regiones espacio-temporales diferentes y temporalmente no extendidas. No obstante, se ha sugerido que esta version del endurantismo se encuentra reñida con axiomas centrales de la mereología extensional clásica, a saber, transitiviad, antisimetría y suplementación débil. En particular, algunos han argumentado [Effingham and Robson (2007), Kleinschmidt (2011)] que, dada la posibilidad de viajar en el tiempo, es posible construir casos en los que un objecto multi-localizado aparentemente violaría tales principios. Mi propósito en este artículo es ofrecer una defensa comprehensiva del endurantismo multi-locacional ante estas objeciones y, más en general, cuestionar la manera en la que a veces se ha pensado la relación entre mereología y teorías metafísicas. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Teorema is the property of Teorema and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
