    Challenges→Relational holism holds in the modal interpretation of quantum mechanics.

    A holism thesis requires stable relational properties, but modal interpretations yield property assignments that are highly context-sensitive and dynamically unstable under interaction.

    Key Terms

    Dynamically unstable(as used in philosophy of physics and systems theory)
    Something that keeps changing or shifting over time and doesn't stay in a steady, predictable state.
    Holism thesis(as used in metaphysics and philosophy of science)
    The philosophical idea that a system or whole can only be fully understood by looking at all its parts together, not by studying each part separately.
    Property assignments(metaphysics/logic)
    The act of saying that something has a particular quality or characteristic.
    context-sensitive(Used to describe terms like 'I' and 'left' whose reference shifts with the context of use.)
    A term whose semantic value or referent varies depending on features of the context of utterance, such as the identity or orientation of the speaker.
