Description: Survey article on logical pluralism. The article is divided into three main parts: i) in the first one the author presents the main arguments for logical pluralism with respect to logical consequence; ii) in the second part, the author considers the relation between logical pluralism and Carnap’s linguistic pluralism; iii) in the last section, the author considers further kinds of logical pluralism.
Comment: This article could be used as background or overview reading on logical pluralism. Suitable for a specialised, perhaps master’s level course on logical pluralism or for a more general course on philosophy of logic touching on the topic.
