Anti-exceptionalism and methodological pluralism in logic

Abstract: According to methodological anti-exceptionalism, logic follows a scientific methodology. There has been some discussion about which methodology logic has. Authors such as Priest, Hjortland and Williamson have argued that logic can be characterized by an abductive methodology. We choose the logical theory that behaves better under a set of epistemic criteria (such as fit to data, simplicity, fruitfulness, or consistency). In this paper, I analyze some important discussions in the philosophy of logic (intuitioni… Show more

“…As Tajer (2022, p. 11) puts it, commenting on the many different non‐classical theories of truth:
In a nutshell, a theory needs to be able to solve paradigmatic semantic paradoxes, and to prove that this solution works (usually with fixed‐point theorems). As far as possible, the deductive power of classical mathematics must also be preserved.

“…It's not that one is not able to have justification with respect to individual sentences about entailment, the point is rather that such justification is dependent on a choice of logical theory, say, classical, intuitionistic, paraconsistent, paracomplete etc. 8 Further, abductivists hold that the grounds for justification of a logical theory is how well it fits with relevant data (frequently taken to be our intuitive judgments about logical Hjortland, 2021Hjortland, , 2022Rossberg and Shapiro, 2021;Sagi, 2021;Becker Arenhart, 2022a,b;Carlson, 2022;Tajer, 2022;Ferrari et al, 2023;Martin and Hjortland, 202X). 2 In a recent paper Martin and Hjortland (2022) distinguish between different kinds of antiexceptionalism about logic.…”
