A possibilities-based account of practical logic.Andrzej Kisielewicz’s logic without edges In this paper I comment on the theses presented in Andrzej Kisielewicz’s book entitled Logic and Argumentation. A Practical Course in Critical Thinking. The author argues that the current way of teaching practical logic is not good, because it is too much based on formal logic. It should be replaced by a comprehensive analysis of reasonable possibilities. I demonstrate that Kisielewicz’s vision of changing the way in which practical logic is taught is a good one. I claim that Kisielewicz proposed a kind of ontologization of logic. I argue that teaching logic and critical thinking need to be complemented by creative thinking techniques. I do not agree with the criticism of traditional logic and formal logic made by Kisielewicz and point out that common sense — so highly valued by Kisielewicz — is deceptive and does not encourage critical thinking.

The paper presents a subjective diagnosis of the state of development of on­tology in Poland, as well as proposals of actions which may contribute to the in­tensification of ontological research in Poland. I point out the strengths of Polish ontology, but also some of its imperfections. As a weakness, I consider there to be too much focused on conservative and safe historical research and a lack of contact with modern science (in particular with the strict and natural sciences). As a strength, I consider there that there is a relatively large group of Polish philosophers and scholars working creatively in ontology. I mention almost 30 im­portant achievements and contributions of Polish ontology. I point out three Pol­ish organizational initiatives: the Copernicus Center for Interdisciplinary Studies, the Laboratory for AgriFood Ontology and the International Center for Formal Ontology. I recommend creating a virtual base of Polish ontology; to publish the papers in leading international journals; a return to classic ontological issues, and not restricting ontological methods of analytic ontology; setting up a mentoring process (due to the mentor-student relationship crisis); the abolition of non-pro­fessional Polish philosophical journals and the dissemination of an international scientific interchange (internships, visits, postdocs and so on) at every stage of an academic career.

“Is logic a physical variable?” This thought-provoking question was put forward by Michael Heller during the public lecture “Category Theory and Mathematical Structures of the Universe” delivered on 30th March 2017 at the National Quantum Information Center in Sopot. It touches upon the intimate relationship between the foundations of physics, mathematics and philosophy. To address this question one needs a conceptual framework, which is on the one hand rigorous and, on the other hand capacious enough to grasp the diversity of modern theoretical physics. Category theory is here a natural choice. It is not only an independent, well-developed and very advanced mathematical theory, but also a holistic, process-oriented way of thinking.

The article summarizes panel discussions led at the Polish Scientific Networks conference. It covers the topics of social and (un)social innovations, their sources, and applications, as well as the new approaches to the concept of the wisdom of the crowds (as opposed to swarm mentality). The article draws on academic research on trust and distrust, declining reliance on formal expertise and a turn against the science, and posttruth society phenomenon. The article concludes with observations about risk aversion in different cultures, to suggest some practical solutions in education programs, needed to address the challenges of the future.
