Hello Andre,

There are no things-in-themselves.

Phenomena as a referent would be something external like granite as 
an inorganic static pattern of value (spov).  A concept as a referent 
would be an idea like Socialism as a social static pattern of value 
(spov).   What I am trying to get at is that in both cases, granite 
(inorganic level) and Socialism (social level), regardless of the 
referent, the static pattern of value is conceptual.

What do you think?


Marsha
