Resumen:
In this work we discuss the problem of defining entanglement in the case of systems composed of indistinguishable subsystems. We will propose an approach to the problem based on the algebraic formalism of quantum mechanics, which is the natural formal counterpart of an ontology of properties, devoid of the ontological category of individual. This ontology leads to a different view of indistinguishability, which is no longer a relation between particles. An additional advantage of this algebraic definition is that it does justice to the relativity of entanglement, a feature that already cannot be ignored.
