Abstract

Processes are occurrents that were, are, or will be happening. They endure or they perdure, i.e. they are either "fully" present at every time they happen, or they rather have temporal parts. According to Stout (2016), they endure. His argument assumes that processes may change. Then, Stout argues that, if something changes, it endures. As I show, Stout's Argument misses its target. In particular, it makes use of a notion of change that is either intuitive but illegitimate or technical but question-begging.

有发生进行时吗?

过程是过去、现在或将要发生的事件。它们要么是持续的，要么是持续的，也就是说，它们要么在每次发生的时候都“完全”存在，要么是有暂时的部分。根据Stout(2016)的说法，它们是持久的。他的论点假设过程可能会改变。然后，斯托特认为，如果有什么变化，它就会持续下去。正如我所展示的，斯托特的论证没有击中目标。特别地，它利用了一种变化的概念，这种概念要么是直觉的，但不合理的，要么是技术的，但会提出问题。
