近几十年来,通货紧缩真理理论受到了基于保守性概念的技术论证的挑战。在本文中,我将强调理论的保守扩展和模型的可扩展性并不是等价的概念。然后,我将认为,真理非实质性的紧缩论点可以更好地理解为利用模型可扩展性的更强概念。一旦论证中涉及到可扩展性,一些值得注意的后果就会随之而来:哈特里·菲尔德针对保守性反对意见提出的策略被严重削弱,甚至更简单的建议(例如基于标准 T 句的理论)也被证明是相当有问题的。
In recent decades deflationary theories of truth have been challenged with a technical argument based on the notion of conservativeness. In this paper, I shall stress that conservative extensions of theories and expandability of their models are not equivalent notions. Then, I shall argue that the deflationary thesis of the unsubstantiality of truth is better understood as leveraging on the stronger notion of expandability of models. Once expandability is involved in the argument, some notable consequences follow: the strategy proposed by Hartry Field in response to the conservativeness objection is strongly undermined and even simpler proposals (such as theories based on standard t-sentences) are shown to be quite problematical.
