El problema de la contingencia en Leibniz hacia 1690: importancia, interpretaciones actuales y modelos alternativos de fundamentación

Abstract

In 1686, Leibniz put forward his “definitive solution” to the problem of contingency. However, his modal metaphysics kept on facing some difficulties which arose from alter- native explicative frameworks. Hence, by 1690, his theory of infinite analysis had to be supplemented with the statement of indemonstrability of the best.
