*Abstracts
(1)Speaker: Takuro Onishi
Title: Usefulness of deduction and Proof-Theoretic Semantics
Abstract:
Michael Dummett’s anti-realist theory of meaning is considered to
provide a philosophical basis of proof-theoretic semantics, which is
an inferentialis approach to logical validity. Unfortunately, in the
debate of proof-theoretic semantics, due attention has not been paid
to his fundamental consideration on the nature of deductive inference,
in which he emphasizes its usefulness or fruitfulness as well as its
validity. That is, deduction is a special kind of activity of
extending our knowledge. Dummett represents it as involving a certain
tension between validity and usefulness, and tries to reconcile it
against the background of his own meaning theory. In this talk I
present Dummett’s view on deduction, and compare it with G.Restall’s
bilateralist explication of logical consequence which would justify
classical logic.

(2)Speaker: Shawn Standefer
Title: Truth and conditionals
Abstract:
Some recent approaches to truth have adopted the strategy of enriching
the underlying logic with a new conditional. I will provide some
background on these approaches and distinguish different roles that
such conditionals play in the theory. I will show how this distinction
plays out in an extension of the revision theory of truth and use the
distinction to offer a philosophical defense of that theory.


(3)Speaker: Yoshihiro Maruyama
Title: Categorical Harmony and Degrees of Paradoxity
Abstract:
Prior's weird connective "tonk" compelled logicians to articulate the
concept of a logical constant, eventually giving rise to developments
of proof-theoretic semantics in the spirit of inferentialism, and to
the notion of proof-theoretic harmony in particular, which works as a
criterion to judge if a connective is a proper logical constant or
not. Different concepts of harmony have been proposed and discussed by
Belnap, Dummett, and many others.
Building upon Lawvere's understanding of logic via category theory, I
formulate a categorical concept of harmony relativised to primitive
vocabulary, and compare it with other notions of harmony. The
categorical conception of harmony leads us to a novel analysis of the
nature of tonk: namely, the problem of tonk is the problem of
equivocation in terms of adjoint functors. It finally turns out that
there are different degrees of paradoxity of logical constants from a
categorical perspective.



(4)Speaker: Greg Restall
Title: Logical Constants and Focusing Disagreements
Abstract:
For expressivists about logic (such as Robert Brandom and Jaroslav
Peregrin), logical vocabulary gives us means to do more than we could
without it. With concepts such as negation, conjunction,
conditionality, and the quantifiers, we can express contents which
would otherwise be out of reach to us. However, in another sense,
logical vocabulary seems to be neutral with regard to content. It does
not seem to add any new subject matter to our thoughts or
conversations.
I will attempt to explain why a certain class of logical expressions
(including the standard propositional connectives, first order
quantifiers, and perhaps some modal operators) give us means to extend
our expressive resources without adding new subject matter, by
attending to the role special that logical vocabulary can play in
articulating disagreements.
