Full Idea
In orthodox logic names are not regarded as having scope (for example, in where a negation is placed), whereas on Russell's theory definite descriptions certainly do. Russell had his own way of dealing with this.
Gist of Idea
Names do not have scope problems (e.g. in placing negation), but Russell's account does have that problem
