- Title
Inferentialism and Some of Its Challenges.
- Authors
BRANDOM, ROBERT
- Abstract
The article discusses on the inferentialism, which is a semantic theory, and some of its challenges. Accordingly, a central semantic task in the area where the philosophy of language and the philosophy of mind overlap is accordingly to offer an account of how these two dimensions of sapience are related to one another. On the other hand, inferentialism is not only a way to try to develop an account that takes the contents of logical concepts as paradigmatic, but it is about the kind of motivation needed to adopt this paradigm.
