While China's acts of censorship and routine banishments of Western technologies aren't exactly new, their take-no-chances stance reflects a very real, logical concern.
This concern was voiced several years ago (Sanderson et al. 2000): A logical concern would be that exposure to triazine herbicides, which are produced and used in large quantities, and are ubiquitous environmental contaminants, may similarly contribute to estrogen-mediated toxicities and inappropriate sexual differentiation.
In most works where Blast has been used to detect putative novel genes in other genomes, the logical concern was expressed that some of these genes may have been incorrectly classified as novel because, being fast genes, they simply were not detected by Blast in other organisms.
The category of fallacies with problematic premises (reminiscent of Whately's "premises unduly assumed") shows a concern with argument evaluation over and beyond logical or inference evaluation, drawing the informal logic approach away from purely logical concerns towards an epistemic conception of fallacies.
Although all of these are logical concerns, they arent new," wrote Henry Blodget, Internet analyst with Merrill Lynch, and a longtime Amazon.com bull.
Owen's view of Parmenidean metaphysics as driven by primarily logical concerns and of his cosmology as no more than a dialectical device would have a deep influence on two of the most important surveys of Presocratic thought since Guthrie Jonathan Barnes's The Presocratic Philosophers (19791, 19822) and Kirk, Raven, and Schofield's The Presocratic Philosophers (19832).

In connection with this, an extra-logical concern provided additional fuel to the debate: the belief that if propositions stating future events that will not happen all turn out to be impossible, the freedom and choices of individuals would be curtailed.
Although Tonk is Prior's best known example of non-conservative extension, he also noted the non-conservative effect of familiar logical principles concerning conjunction when added to a purely implicational intermediate logic; references, details, and further discussion can be found in Humberstone (2014).
They self-consciously put aside logical empiricist concerns with theory reduction and focused instead on the process by which scientists discover mechanisms (see Section 6 below).
The first is that in addition to the logical paradoxes concerning the existence of classes, Russell was aware of certain paradoxes stemming from the assumption that propositions could be understood as individual entities.
