the novelty lies in the fact that the account, unlike most alternatives on the market, does not require the reification of objects, facts, properties, nor their dispositional essences – and is in fact compatible with a far more deflationary approach to dispositions, while still being true to the non-Humean spirit of the proposal.

After receiving his PhD at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa with the thesis A World with Powers, Lorenzo Azzano is now a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Bergamo, within a project on the metaphysics of properties. His original interests in dispositional properties, the ontology and semantics of modality, and laws of nature, have been recently paired to an interest in developments in meta-ontology and meta-metaphysics (especially on the notions of metaphysical structure, non-causal explanations, and ontological commitment). He has also written and published on mereology, plural logic, and more. His current aim is to deploy and combine a number of these tools to make power metaphysics a clearer and more engaging field of discussion for metaphysicians and philosophers of science of all stripes.
