Philosophical Ontology

Ontology as a branch of philosophy is the science of what is, of the kinds and structures of the objects, properties and relations in every area of reality. ‘Ontology’ in this sense is often used in such a way as to be synonymous with ‘metaphysics’. In simple terms it seeks the classification of entities. Each scientific field will of course have its own preferred ontology, defined by the field’s vocabulary and by the canonical formulations of its theories. Traditional (philosophical) ontologists have tended to model themselves on these scientific ontologies, either by producing theories which are like scientific theories but radically more general than these, or by producing theories which represent a regimentation of scientific theories or a clarification of their foundations. Philosophical ontologists have more recently begun to concern themselves not only with the world as this is studied by the sciences, but also with domains of practical activity such as law, medicine, engineering, commerce. They seek to apply the tools of philosophical ontology in order to solve problems which arise in these domains.
