Description
Summary:After examining some components of a framework articulated in terms of general remarks on logic (in which two inadequate views of it are critically investigated), we present some arguments to the effect that a fallibilist, pluralist, though certaínly not relativist, proposal might be interestingly pursued. Based on this proposal, we argüe for a comprehensive agnosticism in connection to some issues raised by paraconsistency (in particular with regard to the existence of true contradictions). Such an agnosticism, not being phiiosophically committed to any particular "interpretative" claims surroundíng paraconsistency, seems to be at the moment more adequate than the alternative proposals.
