In this talk\, I will probe this idea. I start by sketching a working definition of hylomorphism\, and then discuss some cases that seem to invite a hylomorphic treatment\, in particular groups and status entities. Then I turn to more sophisticated examples that seem to forbid an analysis in hylomorphic terms\, in particular to legal persons and to what Barry Smith has termed 'free standing y-terms'. Finally\, I discuss whether my account in my book "Gruppen und Institutionen" is a hylomorphistic theory or not.</p>\n<p><strong>Thomas Sattig -- Reducing Parthood</strong></p>\n<p>The aim is to reduce parthood in the realm of material objects to essence and grounding. The first step is to reduce parthood to slot-filling:&nbsp\;a material object is structured by a certain arrangement of slots\; and the fillers of these slots are the object's proper parts. The second step is to reduce&nbsp\;slot-filling to essence and grounding.&nbsp\;If this overarching reduction succeeds\, it promises new metaphysical foundations for neo-Aristotelian mereology.</p>\n<p><strong>Michael Wallner -- Can Essences Explain Necessity?</strong></p>\n<p>Lately the Finean idea that modal truths are&nbsp\;<em>true in virtue of</em>\,&nbsp\;<em>grounded in</em>\, or&nbsp\;<em>explained by&nbsp\;</em>essentialist truths has been under attack. In this paper I am trying to meet this current criticism by alluding to the distinction between what could be called&nbsp\;<em>Reductive Finean Essentialism&nbsp\;</em>vs.&nbsp\;<em>Non-Reductive Finean Essentialism&nbsp\;</em>and to some of Bob Hale's work on the latter.</p>
