Project title: Moving Beyond Consistency: Motivations for a Non-Explosive Logical Consequence Relation
Department: Philosophy
Faculty supervisor: Dr. Audrey Yap
"This project will further investigate reasons for—and consequences of—a move from classical logic to a non-classical logic, specifically to a paraconsistent logic. Accordingly, it will examine whether there is a good argument for rejecting the principle of explosion of classical logic; and, subsidiarily, what (if anything) this says about the epistemic status of this principle."
