Belief-revision, the Ramsey test, monotonicity, and the so-called impossibility results
Review of Symbolic Logic 1 (4):402-423 (2008)
Abstract
Peter G¨ ardenfors proved a theorem purporting to show that it is impossible to adjoin to the AGM -postulates for belief-revision a principle of monotonicity for revisions. The principle of monotonicity in question is implied by the Ramsey test for conditionals. So G¨Author's Profile
