We also compare the model-theoretic analysis supplied by partial structures with the method of supervaluations, which was initially introduced as a technique to provide a semantic analysis of free logic.

Paraconsistent logic with Newton C. Hartry Field has recently examined the question whether our logical and mathematical concepts are referentially indeterminate. In his view, 1 certain logical notions, such as second-order quantification, are indeterminate, but 2 important mathematical notions, such as the notion of finiteness, are not they are determinate.

In this paper, I assess Field's analysis, and argue that claims 1 and 2 turn out to be inconsistent. After all, given that the notion of finiteness can only be adequ… Read more Hartry Field has recently examined the question whether our logical and mathematical concepts are referentially indeterminate. After all, given that the notion of finiteness can only be adequately characterized in pure secondorder logic, if Field is right in claiming that second-order quantification is indeterminate see 1 , it follows that finiteness is also indeterminate contrary to 2.

After arguing that Field is committed to these claims, I provide a diagnosis of why this inconsistency emerged, and I suggest an alternative, consistent picture of the relationship between logical and mathematical indeterminacy. Logics Logic and Philosophy of Logic. Second-order logic has a number of attractive features, in particular the strong expressive resources it offers, and the possibility of articulating categorical mathematical theories such as arithmetic and analysis. But it also has its costs.

Noam Chomsky - The Structure of Language

Five major charges have been launched against second-order logic: Therefore, it is not clear how this logic should be interpreted. In this paper, I argue that the second-order theorist can solve each of these difficulties. As a result, second-order logic provides the benefits of a rich framework without the associated costs. Chris Mortensen, Inconsistent Mathematics. Chris Mortensen, Joshua Cole, Foundations: Provability, Truth and Sets. In this paper, I shall provide a defence of second-order logic in the context of its use in the philosophy of mathematics.

This shall be done by considering three problems that have been recently posed against this logic: As I shall argue, each of these problems can be neatly solved by the second-order theorist. As a result, a case for second-order logic can be made. The first two problems will beconsidered rather briefly in the next section. The rest of the paper is dedicate to a discussion of the third.

Logical non-apriorism and the law of non-contradiction with Mark Colyvan. Book reviews review with Matthias Schirn , N. Da Costa, Kenneth G. Ferguson, and Krystyna G. In this expository paper, we examine some philosophical and technical issues brought by paraconsistency. We also suggest a way of accommodating these issues by considering some problems in the philosophy of logic from a new perspective.
