The problem of persistence is as old as the tradition of systematic ontology. How can we explain that the middle-sized standard objects of everyday's life are regarded normally as remaining 'the same', even if they change their properties and their material constituents? The aim of this edition is to present new arguments, perspectives, and theoretical backgrounds concerning 'persistence': There is much more to consider than the classical distinction between 'endurantism' and 'perdurantism'. The volume includes contributions authored by S. Barker, P. Dowe, A. Chrudzimski, P. Grenon, B. Smith,

This book is about “how things are.” It starts from the principles of a descriptive (i.e. “everyday ontological”) ontology of things to develop a theory about the title question that is based on the notion of “mode”. Modes are concrete, individual determinants of things. The power of the theory is then tested to determine its usefulness for developing an ontology of things. „Wie Dinge sind“ steht für das klassische Themenfeld der Eigenschaften oder Akzidentien. Im Buch wird von einer Ding- oder Substanzontologie ausgegangen, die deskriptiv oder alltagsontologisch ausgerichtet ist. Der Untertitel „noch eine Alltagsontologie“ bezieht sich auf den Untertitel („eine Alltagsontologie“) der Monographie „Ding – Substanz – Person“, welche durch dieses Buch thematisch geschlossen weitergeführt wird. Dabei wird der alltagsontologische Zugang gegen alternative Entwürfe (revisionäre Ontologie) grundsätzlich abgegrenzt und verteidigt. Der Schlüsselbegriff zur vorliegenden Theorie ist „Modus“. Modi sind partikuläre Weisen, wie Dinge sind. Modi sind in ihrer Existenz von Dingen abhängige Entitäten und weisen einen Qualitäts- und einen Kraftaspekt auf. Letzterer ist maßgeblich für (naturgesetzliche) Kausalität.Diese Modiontologie wird anhand konkreter Fragestellungen im Eigenschafts-Themenfeld ausgearbeitet, u.a. Modi und abundante Eigenschaften, Modi und uneigentliche Eigenschaften, Modi und die Distinktion extrinsische und intrinsische Eigenschaften, wesentliche und akzidentelle Modi. Schließlich wird gezeigt, wie die Annahme von Modi zur Verteidigung und zum Aufbau einer Ding- oder Substanzontologie beiträgt.

The leading idea of the book is to focus on the common roots of Islamic and Western traditions and to increase awareness of the chances of systematic philosophical dispute, with the aim to promote a substantial dialogue on an academic level. Most of the collected papers in this edition are results of contributions to a workshop, organized by the editors of the volume, as an integrated part of a visit to the Imam Khomeini Education and Research Institute (IKERI) of Qom by a delegation of philosophers from the University of Innsbruck in May 2008. The organizational frame of the workshop and also of this edition is the partnership between the IKERI and the University of Innsbruck-the first formal high-level academic partnership between an Iranian Institution and a European University. The contributions in this edition investigate the topic "Soul" in an interdisciplinary and comparative way: Psychologists, Philosophers, and Theologians from both, Islamic and Western traditions, should be brought into dialogue with the focus on the general theme.
