Logical Relativity Theory

A metalogical and infralogical theory proposing that logic is not absolute or universal but relative to ten interconnected points: Context, Perspective, Situation, Place, Subject, Object, Theme, Space, Time, and Details. What counts as a valid inference, a contradiction, or a sound argument shifts depending on these factors. The same principle applies to reason, rationality, thought, cognition, epistemology, and philosophy. The theory does not claim “anything goes” but rather that logical validity is always validity-relative-to-a-frame. For example, a conclusion that follows in a courtroom may fail in a laboratory; a reasoning step acceptable in everyday conversation may be fallacious in mathematical proof. Logical Relativity Theory challenges the idea of a single, universal logic and instead embraces a pluralistic, context-sensitive understanding of reasoning.
Example: “He insisted his syllogism was universally valid, but her logical relativity theory showed it depended entirely on unstated assumptions about time, place, and perspective—change those, and the logic collapsed.”
