Local and global metrics for the semantics of counterfactual conditionals
Journal of Applied Non-Classical Logics 4 (2):129-140 (1994)
Abstract
No aConsiders the question of how far the different ‘closeness’ relations, indexed by worlds, in a given model for counterfactual conditionals may be derived from a common source. Counterbalancing some well-known negative observations, we show that there is also a strong positive answer.Author's Profile
