The Model-Theoretic Account: Quantificational Approach Triumphant?}, journal = {Organon F}, volume = {21}, number = {4}, year = {2014}, pages = {492-515}, type = {State}, abstract = {This concluding study devoted to quantificational accounts of consequence and related logical properties deals with the model-theoretic account (MTA). In response to objections questioning its intuitive adequacy, it is argued that MTA does not aim to analyse {\textquotedblleft}the{\textquotedblright} alleged intuitive notion of consequence, but aims to formally reconstruct one specific semantic account, according to which valid arguments preserve truth in virtue of their logico-semantic structure and irrespectively of particular semantic values of the non-logical vocabulary. So conceived, MTA is arguably superior to any other quantificational account, being based on a principled account of the semantic structure and the specific contribution of logical elements to it.}, keywords = {logical consequence, models, quantificational accounts, validity}, url = {http://www.klemens.sav.sk/fiusav/doc/organon/2014/4/492-515.pdf}, author = {Kore{\v n}, Ladislav} }
