The Grounding of Logic

The third point is even more broadly based, with a background stretching from Husserl to Davidson, with all stations in between.

The world is always, already, interpreted. We can’t step outside our representations of the world.

One corollary of that is that there is no neutral ground from which we might choose between the logics available to us.

Another corollary, if we accept that language is inherently communal, is that our representations of the world are also inherently communal.

And from that we might welcome a preference for those representations, those explanations, that are more widely accepted, that are not true for one, but true for many. Not the view from nowhere but the view from anywhere.
