- Abstract
- The notion of that information is relative to a context is important in
many different ways. The idea that the context is small — that is, not
necessarily a consistent and complete possible world — plays a role not
only in situation theory, but it is also an enlightening perspective from
which to view other areas, such as modal logics, relevant logics, categorial
grammar and much more.
In this article we will consider these areas, and focus then on one
further question: How can we account for information about one thing
giving us information about something else? This is a question addressed
by channel theory. We will look at channel theory and then see how the
issues of information flow and conditionality play a role in each of the
different domains we have examined.
