Quidditism

In metaphysics, quidditism is the perspective implied by the belief that nomological roles do not supervene on causal properties.[1] Quidditism endorses the existence of quiddities (the existence of "whatness" of properties) and is typically characterized in opposition to causal essentialism.[2]
