“Inference versus consequence” revisited: inference, consequence, conditional, implication Göran Sundholm

Abstract

Inference versus consequence, an invited lecture at the LOGICA 1997
conference at Castle Liblice, was part of a series of articles for which I did research
during a Stockholm sabbatical in the autumn of 1995. The article seems to have been
fairly effective in getting its point across and addresses a topic highly germane to the
Uppsala workshop. Owing to its appearance in the LOGICA Yearbook 1997, Filosofia
Publishers, Prague, 1998, it has been rather inaccessible. Accordingly it is republished
here with only bibliographical changes and an afterword.
