Douven on Putnam's model-theoretic argument

The model-theoretic argument, which Putnam employs to argue against metaphysical realism, has face serious objections in many realist opponents. Igor Douven in his recent paper offers a new interpretation of the model-theoretic argument, which avoids the previous objections. The purpose of this paper is to show that Douven's reconstruction of Putnam's argument is not successful, and hence that the realist objections still stand.
