Logic of normative/value-based inferences

שו”תCategory: philosophyLogic of normative/value-based inferences
asked 5 years ago

Hello, Your Honor,
In your book “Truth and Unstable,” you described synthetic logic and its structure in scientific/factual questions.
My question is, is there an organized logical system for inferences in the normative/value domain as well? Is it different from the system you described or is it the same system? If so, how does it work in the aforementioned domain – how to arrive at a ‘correct’ answer (to a reasonable extent) in questions of morality or aesthetics?
If you wrote about this and I missed it, the reference would be sufficient. In any case, thank you.

Logic is logic, and by its very nature it is independent of the content areas in which it is applied. From ethical premises you will draw ethical conclusions, and from factual premises you will draw factual conclusions.
