Douglas Ehring presents a defense of tropes--properties and relations understood as particulars--and of trope bundle theory as the bestaccounts of properties and objects, and advocates a specific brand of trope nominalism, Natural Class Trope Nominalism. This position rejects the existence of universals, and holds that the nature of eachindividual trope is determined by its membership in various natural classes of tropes (in contrast with the view that a trope's nature is logically prior to those class memberships).
