The proper explanation of intuitionistic logic

on Brouwer's demonstration of the Bar theorem

Göran Sundholm Mark Van Atten

pp. 60-77

Abstract

Brouwer's demonstration of his Bar Theorem gives rise to provocative questions regarding the proper explanation of the logical connectives within intuitionistic and constructivist frameworks, respectively, and, more generally, regarding the role of logic within intuitionism. It is the purpose of the present note to discuss a number of these issues, both from an historical, as well as a systematic point of view.
