Essay from the year 2015 in the subject Philosophy - Theoretical (Realisation, Science, Logic, Language), , language: English, abstract: The text argues that vagueness may be identified on the basis of three criteria: A term is vague if 1) it generates borderline cases; 2) if its application is subject to a distinctive type of puzzle called the sorites paradox; and 3) if it cannot be applied without violating traditional rules governing classification, a phenomenon known as boundarilessness.
