9560 | S5 provides the correct logic for necessity in the broadly logical sense [Fine,K] |
Full Idea: S5 provides the correct logic for necessity in the broadly logical sense. | |
From: Kit Fine (Model Theory for Modal Logic I [1978], 151), quoted by Charles Chihara - A Structural Account of Mathematics | |
A reaction: I have no view on this, but I am prejudiced in favour of the idea that there is a correct logic for such things, whichever one it may be. Presumably the fact that S5 has no restrictions on accessibility makes it more comprehensive and 'metaphysical'. |
