Neither Nor Logic and Other Issues in Decision Making and Development Studies

Authors: Victor Christianto, Florentin Smarandache

Decision making, especially in real-world contexts, often involves complexities that go beyond simple linear logic. We are often faced with situations where the available choices present a series of conflicting criteria. This is a dilemma often described in the classic Indonesian proverb "buah simalakama" (if eaten, father dies, but if not eaten, mother dies): whatever choice is made, there are always unpleasant consequences. This paper attempts to examine the problem of decision making from the perspective of conflicting criteria. We also discuss among other things Water logic proposed by Edward de Bono, Neutrosophic Logic proposed by Florentin Smarandache one of us, Logic of not proposed by Nagatomo, and neither nor logic as commonly found among Asian people.
