  <dc:description xmlns:ns0="xml" ns0:lang="en">It has been argued that Humean Supervenience (HS) is threatened by the existence of quantum entanglement relations. The most  conservative strategy for defending HS is to add the problematic entanglement relations to the supervenience basis, alongside  spatiotemporal relations. In this paper, I’m going to argue against this strategy by showing how certain particular cases of tripartite  entanglement states – i.e. GHZ states – posit some crucial problems for this amended version of HS. Moreover, I will show that the principle  of free recombination – which is strictly linked to HS – is severely undermined if we add entanglement relations to the supervenience basis. I  conclude that the conservative move is very unappealing, and therefore the defender of HS should pursue other, more controversial,  strategies (e.g. committing to the nomological interpretation of the wave function).</dc:description>
