SEOANE, JOSÉ. The Logical Program of Vaz Ferreira: Reform or Revolution?. Rev. latinoam. filos. [online]. 2019, vol.45, n.2, pp.1-10. ISSN 1852-7353.

Lógica Viva' s program exhibits an antagonism in relation to the traditional treatment of sophisms. This opposition could be understood as extensional criticism: the traditional approach only considers some paral-ogisms, but there are others. Nevertheless, it can also be understood as an intensional criticism: the traditional form of characterization of paralogisms is rejected. In the first case, the positive dimension ofVaz Ferreira's program would operate by addition; in the second, it would operate by reconfiguration of the field. Which of these alternatives can be attributed to Lógica Viva? This paper analyzes two perspectives related to Vaz Ferreira’s criticism: those of Paladino and Seoane. The main conclusion is that both perspectives (with relevant differences) stimulate the revolutionary alternative.
