Abstract

A linguistic analysis of deontic paradoxes can be used to further develop deontic logic. In this paper we provide a Beth-Reichenbach semantics to analyze deontic paradoxes, and we illustrate it on the single agent decision problem of the miners scenario. We also introduce extensions with reactive arrows and actions, which can be used to give a linguistic interpretation of multi-agent dialogues.
