 Proof-Theory
Thus the analogue of Prawitz's conjecture is the statement that beta-equivalence defines algorithmic identity.
But this is certainly wrong: a normal lambda-term corresponds to the output of the computation, and we do not want to identify algorithms only by their input-output behaviour.
The genuine philosophical interest of this kind of investigations is recognized, as soon as we realize that a solution to the problem of the identity of proofs can only come from the analysis of the structure of informal proofs in everyday mathematics.

 Understanding Wh-Interrogatives in Terms of Inferential Roles   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
This theory originates out of two threads of work, firstly the rule theory of concepts due to Wittgenstein in the `Philosophical Investigations', and secondly the proof theoretic semantics of formal languages developed by Gerhard Gentzen in the 1930s.
The connection between the two approaches was noted by Nuel Belnap in the 1960s and was elaborated by Michael Dummett, Dag Prawitz and Per Martin-Löf.
The theory is attractive because it is conducive to a formal treatment which is compositional and computationally tractable, yet does not relegate issues of pragmatics to the sidelines.

 Introduction
What follows is a write-up of my contribution to the symposium ``Hilbert's Program Sixty Years Later'' which was sponsored jointly by the American Philosophical Association and the Association for Symbolic Logic.
The symposium was held on December 29, 1985 in Washington, D. The panelists were Solomon Feferman, Dag Prawitz and myself.
The research which I discuss here was partially supported by NSF Grant DMS-8317874.

 Logical Consequence (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
If this kind of strategy is successful, then it seems that one is able to give an account of logical consequence in terms acceptable to the Anti-realist, who eschews taking truth (or at least, correspondence-truth) as an explanatory notion.
While the philosophical divide between Realists and Anti-realists remains vast, proof-centered and model-centered accounts of consequence have been united (at least with respect to extension) in many cases.

 Michael Dummett [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
The technical apparatus for examining whether adding some constant to the language involves a conservative or non-conservative extension is known as "proof-theory".
It was pioneered by Gerhard Gentzen, and Dummett's third-grade proof theoretic justification builds on the work of Dag Prawitz.
It must be remembered that Dummett is not arguing that we should accept only those logical laws which can be justified by these means -- rather, he is suggesting that these logical laws are the ones which can be taken for granted when trying to justify more controversial principles.

In Chapter I we showed that his natural deduction really does agree with the mathematical vernacular.
Dag Prawitz, Nikolas de Bruijn and Per Martin-Löf developed calculi which their followers have used to formalise many mathematical arguments, and even for programming.
These help us to understand very clearly the extent to which equality, the quantifiers, powersets and the other components of logic are actually employed.

Professor Prawitz will examine the grounds on which assertions are made and will attend to the notions of proof and inference.
Criticizing usual accounts of these notions, he will develop an epistemic approach to meaning that focuses on the justification of assertions.
He will also discuss the bearings on metaphysical issues of realism and anti-realism.

 A type theory for classical arithmetic   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
We examine an alternative formulation of constructive content based upon reading off the meaning of logical constants from their rules, an idea that goes back to Gentzen and which has been illuminatingly developed by Dag Prawitz, Nuel Belnap and Michael Dummett.
Semantics without set theory We show how dependent types, proof reductions and Martin-Löf's intensional equality may be used to give a proof semantics of intuitionistic arithmetic.
We extend our account of Prawitz's inversion principle to the new construtors of the lambda-mu calculus, which in the context of our earlier discussion warrants the claim that this calculus is a constructive account of classical logic.
