Alexandre Thiercelin (Berlin): Conditions, conditionnels, droits conditionnels: L’articulation du jeune Leibniz (II^e Partie)

The first part of my paper dealt with the way Leibniz uses logical tools for the analysis of conditionals in order to give a new explanation for both the effect and nature of suspensive conditions in the law. I focus now on logical gains achieved by Leibniz’s method. The first one is a pragmatic approach to conditionals that results in the precise characterization of a practical relevance condition for specific moral conditionals with links to a theory for evaluating the probability of suspensive conditions. The second one is a treatment of both disjunction and conjunction giving access to an original approach to logic: logic as processing information rather than propositions.
