Reflections on Skolem's Relativity of Set-Theoretical Concepts!

In this paper an attempt Is made to present Skolem's argument forthe relativity of some set-theoretical notions as a sensible one. Skolem's critiqueof set theory is seen as part of a larger argument to the effect that no conclusiveevidence has been given for the existence of uncountable sets. Some replies toSkolem are discussed and are shown not to affect Skolem's position, since theyall presuppose the existence of uncountable sets. The paper ends with an assess-mont of the assumptions on which Skolem's argument rests from a present-dayperspective.
