From Consequence Operator to Universal Logic: A Survey of General Abstract Logic

  • Conference paper
Book cover Logica Universalis

Abstract

We present an overview of the different frameworks and structures that have been proposed during the last century in order to develop a general theory of logics. This includes Tarski's consequence operator, logical matrices, Hertz's Satzsysteme, Gentzen's sequent calculus, Suszko's abstract logic, algebraic logic, da Costa's theory of valuation and universal logic itself.

This research was supported by a grant of the Swiss National Science Foundation. I would like to thank Newton da Costa and Alexandre Costa-Leite for useful comments.
