Citation
Description Sequent calculus is often seen just as a technical tool that lacks the intuitive appeal of natural deduction. I will try to show that this is not necessarily the case. I will argue that sequent calculus is a philosophically well founded system in its own right and that it can be viewed just as "natural" as natural deduction. Consequently, it will be argued that sequent calculus provides a basis for a more general notion of inference that is exemplified by the so-called 2D inference, i.e., deduction-to-deduction inference.
