Models are ubiquitous. They are found since the beginning of human culture, in great varieties of appearance and use. A model is always at the same time a model ›of something‹ and a model ›for something‹. Its function is to ›carry‹ some ›cargo‹ from its ›matrix‹ to its ›applicate‹. Since every object can be a model but none is a model by necessity, the question of what a model is leads to considerations on how to explain things which are being conceived of and depend on subjects and situations. Model-being can therefore not be explained through some relationship of similarity or as a form of abstraction, but only through a model which imposes a structure on the context, in which a model fulfills its function. Based on such a model of model-being, models can be questioned and thus be the subject of a general model theory.
