In philosophy, a state of affairs (German: Sachverhalt), also known as a situation, is a way the actual world must be in order to make some given proposition about the actual world true; in other words, a state of affairs is a truth-maker, whereas a proposition is a truth-bearer. Whereas states of affairs either obtain or fail-to-obtain, propositions are either true or false. Some philosophers understand the term "states of affairs" in a more restricted sense as a synonym for "fact". In this sense, there are no states of affairs that do not obtain.

  • 哲学において状況とは、ある時間においてある個体に何らかの効果を与える環境的な条件のことである。広義には環境的な条件に加え個体の内的条件を含むこともあるが狭義に環境ないしは場と同義とされる。なお、後者を指す場合は事態とも言う。 (ja)
  • Estado de coisas (expressão equivalente em inglês: state of affairs; em alemão: Sachverhalt, por empréstimo do latim status rerum) é um conceito presente na filosofia e nas ciências humanas. (pt)
  • En métaphysique analytique, un état de choses ou fait est une réalité fondamentale composite qui provient de la combinaison d’un individu au sens strict (thin particular en anglais) et d’une propriété. D'après David M. Armstrong, cette combinaison est la structure la plus fondamentale de la réalité. À ces deux constituants s'ajoutent des relations entre les individus. (fr)

  • En métaphysique analytique, un état de choses ou fait est une réalité fondamentale composite qui provient de la combinaison d’un individu au sens strict (thin particular en anglais) et d’une propriété. D'après David M. Armstrong, cette combinaison est la structure la plus fondamentale de la réalité. À ces deux constituants s'ajoutent des relations entre les individus. Le concept d'« état de choses » (state of affairs en anglais) a été forgé par David Armstrong à partir de la notion de « fait » proposée par Wittgenstein dans son Tractatus. Selon ces deux auteurs, les individus, les propriétés et les relations sont tout ce qui existe dans le monde. (fr)

Some philosophers understand the term "states of affairs" in a more restricted sense as a synonym for "fact". In this sense, there are no states of affairs that do not obtain. David Malet Armstrong is well known for his defence of a factualism, a position according to which the world is a world of facts and not a world of things. (en)
