Platonism refers to the philosophy of Plato (428–348 B.C.) and the movements specifically inspired by it. Uncapitalized, platonism has become a technical term in ontology for those who countenance abstract entities that are not merely abstractions from or constructions out of particulars, and specifically, in the philosophy of mathematics, for those who maintain that numbers are such objects. Although Plato was a platonist in this sense, most modern platonists do not hold many of Plato's most important doctrines in metaphysics, epistemology, and ethics.

Platonismen refererer til filosofien av Platon (428-348 f.Kr.) og bevegelser spesielt inspirert av den. Dvs, platonismen blitt en teknisk term i ontologi for de som åsyn abstrakte enheter som ikke bare abstraksjoner fra eller konstruksjoner av opplysninger, og spesielt i filosofi matematikk, for de som hevder at tallene er slike objekter. Selv om Platon var en platonist i denne forstand, holde mest moderne platonists ikke mange av Platons viktigste læresetningene i metafysikk, epistemologi og etikk.
