A reflective, evolving framework for understanding the nature, foundations, and plurality of logic itself. It acknowledges that different logical systems (classical, fuzzy, paraconsistent, intuitionistic) may be useful for different domains or problems. It is open to revising its understanding of what logic is based on insights from cognitive science, computer science, and philosophy. It treats logic not as a singular, sacred monolith, but as a toolkit of reasoning styles.
Meta-Logical Open Systems Example: The modern field of philosophical logic, which compares classical logic to non-classical logics suitable for handling vagueness, paradoxes, or quantum phenomena, operates as a Meta-Logical Open System. It doesn't seek the "One True Logic," but explores a landscape of possible logics, open to the idea that our reasoning tools must adapt to the complexities of the world and mind.
