@article{Smith2003-BROAUT,number = {169-170},abstract = {The truthmaker theory rests on the thesis that the link between a true judgment and that in the world to which it corresponds is not a one-to-one but rather a one-to-many relation. An analogous thesis in relation to the link between a singular term and that in the world to which it refers is already widely accepted. This is the thesis to the effect that singular reference is marked by vagueness of a sort that is best understood in supervaluationist terms. In what follows we show that the supervaluationist approach to singular reference, when wedded to the truthmaker idea, yields a framework of surprising power, which offers a uniform set of solutions to a range of problems regarding identity, reference and knowledge, problems which have hitherto been dealt with on an ad hoc basis.},journal = {Logique Et Analyse},year = {2003},author = {Barry Smith and Berit Brogaard},volume = {169},title = {A Unified Theory of Truth and Reference},pages = {49--93}}@
