[159] Hans: Properties are not subjective Kalle, if the unnamed person in your life gets in a bad mood about the
music, this does not mean she hears different music than you do. The
music is the same. Properties are not subjective. But of course you
have a point. The use value of a thing is not the same as its
properties. The use value is relative; it arises from the
connection between the thing's properties and human needs (and every
human is different). A good example is the bandana in Pizza's [135],
which was intended to be an answer to Question 90. It has nothing to
do with Question 90, but it gives an impressive example where two
bandanas which have physcially almost identical properties have quite
different use values. |
