Abstract

In the context of offering alternative logics that deal non-trivially with semantic paradoxes while overcoming the objection of incoherence usually raised against them, the BA-Plan proposes a definition of logic in the sense of an infinite sequence of notions of consequence that specifies validity standards for the inferential level and for the meta-inferential ones. The present work argues that if the convenience of this definition of logic is admitted, it is possible to disentangle the notion of coherence between validity standards from the notion of uniformity between validity standards.
