• @incollection{Liggins2005-LIGTAE,publisher = {Clarendon},pages = {105--115},booktitle = {Truthmakers: The Contemporary Debate},title = {Truthmakers and Explanation},abstract = {Truthmaker theory promises to do some useful philosophical work: equipping us to argue against phenomenalism and Rylean behaviourism, for instance, and helping us decide what exists (Lewis 1999, 207; Armstrong 1997, 113-119). But it has proved hard to formulate a truthmaker theory that is both useful and believable. I want to suggest that a neglected approach to truthmakers -- that of Ian McFetridge -- can surmount some of the problems that make other theories of truthmaking unattractive. To begin with, I'll outline some of the most prominent accounts of truthmaking in the current literature. Then the second part of the paper will explain McFetridge's theory and argue for its superiority over these accounts.},editor = {Helen Beebee and Julian Dodd},year = {2005},author = {David Liggins}}@
