And perhaps Peter Aberlard's view sometimes referred to moderate nominalism This compromise position between nominalism and realismis is called Conceptualism. This is the view that rejects realism, but holds that universals are more than merely name words. The words stand for universal concepts, objective only in the sense that they are independent of subjective naming.
