Oaxaca, Mexico.
Extended submission deadline: April 1, 2024.
Paraconsistent logic is a family of theories on what can be logically concluded from contradictions, different from the family of theories according to which contradictions entail everything. By touching on core areas of theoretical inquiry, such as truth, falsity, logicality, negation, or rationality, paraconsistent logic has opened new research directions in philosophy, science, and technology.
Within the tradition of previous world congresses on paraconsistency, WCP7 aims to show the importance of paraconsistent logic, its connection with other knowledge domains, and the variety of approaches to the topic.
Venue: The WCP7 will take place at the Universidad Benito Juárez de Oaxaca (Oaxaca, Mexico).
