An umbrella term for every logical system that rejects one or more of the core assumptions of Classical Logic. This includes intuitionistic logic (rejects excluded middle), paraconsistent logic (allows contradictions), fuzzy logic (truth comes in degrees), relevance logic (requires premises to be relevant to conclusions), and dozens more. Non-Classical Logic isn't a single alternative—it's a riot of alternatives, each developed to handle some domain where Classical Logic chokes. It's the recognition that one logical size does not fit all realities, and that different problems require different logical tools.
Non-Classical Logic "Classical Logic says a statement is either true or false. Fuzzy Logic, a Non-Classical system, says it's 73% true with a margin of error. This describes my confidence in my career choices much more accurately."
