SUMMARY:Evaluative Logic: How to Objectively Evaluate Anything with Rod Ada
 ms
DESCRIPTION:Our self-governance requires that we learn with and from each o
 ther\; and we can do such learning only by disagreeing productively. Disag
 reements about what is the case are handled effectively by empirical scien
 ce\, with natural science showing impressive results for four hundred year
 s. But our self-governance also requires evaluations. I propose Evaluative
  Logic as a tool for guiding our disagreements about evaluative issues tow
 ard correct answers. The tool combines the instrumental principle\, the co
 llaborative principle\, and the Laws of Thought of classical logic as supp
 lemented with three principles that allow inclusion of civil life content.
  There are strong criticisms against the possibility of productive disagre
 ement about evaluative issues. I will address those criticisms after first
  demonstrating and discussing use of the tool.
