Contradictions, from Consistency to Inconsistency

Beschreibung

This volume investigates what is beyond the Principle of Non-Contradiction. It features 13 papers on the foundations of reasoning, including logical systems and philosophical considerations. Coverage brings together a cluster of issues centered upon the variety of meanings of consistency, contradiction, and related notions. 


Most of the papers, but not all, are developed around the subtle distinctions between consistency and non-contradiction, as well as among contradiction, inconsistency, and triviality, and concern one of the above mentioned threads of the broadly understood non-contradiction principle and the related principle of explosion. Some others take a perspective that is not too far away from such themes, but with the freedom to tread new paths. 




Readers should understand the title of this book in a broad way,because it is not so obvious to deal with notions like contradictions, consistency, inconsistency, and triviality. The papers collected here present groundbreaking ideas related to consistency and inconsistency.

Walter Carnielli is professor of logic and philosophy at the Department of Philosophy, and a former  Director of the Centre for Logic, Epistemology and the History of Science of the University of Campinas, Brazil. He received a PhD in Mathematics from the University of Campinas and held research positions at the University of São Paulo, University of California Berkeley, University of Münster, University of Bonn, Superior Technical Institute Lisbon, and Université du Luxembourg. He has published several books and more than 100 scientific papers in combinatorics, proof theory,  semantics for nonclassical logics,  recursion theory and computability, set theory, modal logics, combinations of logics, and foundations of
paraconsistent logics. His concerns involve the expansion of reasoning horizons by non-classical logics, including the connections between logic, probability and game theory, as well as the philosophical
interpretation of non-classical logics. He is executive editor of the IGPL Journal (Oxford Journals), editor of The Non-classical Logics Corner of the Journal of Logic and Computation (together with Heinrich
Wansing) and member of the editorial board of several other journals. Carnielli is a recipient of the Jabuti Prize, Brazil's most prestigious literary prize.
