The analysis shows that metrical properties are not `powers', i.e. they cannot be understood as producing the effects of spacetime on matter with metaphysical necessity. Instead they possess categorical characteristics which, in connection with specific laws, explain those effects. Thus, the properties of spacetime do not favor the metaphysics of powers with respect to properties and laws},author = {Andreas Bartels},number = {12},year = {2013},title = {Why Metrical Properties Are Not Powers},journal = {Synthese}}@
