The problem of formal logic as viewed by Pragmatism logicJohn Dewey as a model / Comparative Critical Study

Abstract

John Dewey beheld at the Aristotelian figurative logic with respect and admiration, but he regarded Aristotelian s’ principles as philosophies that link between physics and metaphysics by adopting logical formulas, their priorities are pre-thinking, they were effective in their time, but the evolution of science has imposed a new logical thinking. His logical principles stem from nature itself. Hence, each of the philosophers had their own logic and adopted method, but the difference among them showed up, which in turn led to an alteration in the assumption of their methodology with regard to the theory of truth. The theory based on the validity of the introductions to reach a conclusion and the theory based on the (situation) situation indeterminate and it’s becoming a situation which serve a community, Dewey's truth is beneficial and his logical philosophy instrumental.
