- Description:
- Motivated by the fact that logicians and computer scientists working in fuzzy logic hardly seem to take notice of the prolific and broad discourse on vagueness in analytic philosophy, we provide an overview of the most irnportant topics and trends in the ‘vagueness debate’. In particnlar we list a range of different phenornena of vagueness that should be addressed by any full-fledged theory of vagueness. Moreover we propose a classiíication of theories of vagueness and suggest various criteria for their evaluation.
