| Objectivity: is a property of determinations about facts. It is assumed that the properties attributed to the facts are determined by the facts and are not, or as little as, influenced by the attributing person. In order to determine whether this requirement is fulfilled, consideration must be given to the methods of access to information. This goes beyond the facts considered._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.

Problem: then the phenomena are still mere moments of the one and only substance, as in Spinoza. >Substance/Leibniz, >Substance/Spinoza, >Identity/Leibniz, >Unity/Leibniz, >Perception/Leibniz, >Content/Leibniz, >Predicate/Leibniz._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
