Specific Objections

View through CrossRef
AbstractThis chapter turns to specific objections against logical pluralism. There are a number of objections to classical, intuitionistic, and relevant logic which are specific to those logics, and not to the scheme of pluralism as a whole. Since it makes sense not only to be a pluralist about logical consequence, but to be a pluralist who endorses each of classical, constructive, and relevant reasoning, it becomes obligatory to say something about such logic-specific objections. These objections relate to coherence and relevant models, relevance and explosion, intensionality and the slingshot, and constructivity and semantics.

AbstractThis chapter turns to specific objections against logical pluralism.
There are a number of objections to classical, intuitionistic, and relevant logic which are specific to those logics, and not to the scheme of pluralism as a whole.
Since it makes sense not only to be a pluralist about logical consequence, but to be a pluralist who endorses each of classical, constructive, and relevant reasoning, it becomes obligatory to say something about such logic-specific objections.
These objections relate to coherence and relevant models, relevance and explosion, intensionality and the slingshot, and constructivity and semantics.
