The Entretiens of the Institut International de Philosophie for
1978 were held in connection with the World Congress of Philosophy
in Dusseldorf, from August 27 to September 1. The theme of the
Entretiens was Logic and Philosophy (Logique et philosophie). The
undersigned, then President of LI.P., was responsible for the
planning of the programme. The programme was designed to consist of
four sections with the headings Classical and Intuitionist Logic,
Modal Logic and its Applications, Inductive Logic and its
Applications, and Logic and Epistemology. The aim was also to
convey to philosophers who are not experts in logic an informative
and representative impression of some of the main sectors of the
vast and rapidly expanding field of philosophical logic. At the
same time it was thought that this impression should not be
conveyed in the form of a series of survey papers but through
presentations and discussions of specific topics falling under the
main headings men tioned above. For each section a rapporteur was
nominated to read a paper and an interlocuteur to comment on it.
The programme chairman is grateful that he was able to engage a
representative selection of front rank philosophi cal logicians to
perform the various tasks. The papers and the comments are printed
in this volume in the order in which they appeared in the Programme
of the Entretiens.
