Domain-specific

• Material Inference
  • Robert Brandom develops the thought into inferentialism: conceptual content is articulated partly by the materially appropriate inferences a speaker treats as commitments and entitlements.
• Proof-theoretic semantics
  • The entry records a descriptive analytical identity; practical use requires the governing domain's evidence, standards, and safety obligations.
