I propose that logic may be seen as a science of patterns-however, not in the sense in which mathematics is a science of patterns, but rather in the sense in which physics is. The proposal is that logic identifies, explores, and fixes the inferential patterns which de facto govern our argumentative practices. It can be seen, I argue, as picking up the patterns and working from them toward the state of reflective equilibrium, where the laws it aims at are explicitly articulated. Due to the normativity of logic, this process is not quite the same as that in which a natural science works its way from data to its laws: however, there is no reason why it should be seen as proceeding via a mysterious “a priori analysis.” Instead, it should proceed in the intersubjective space in which the sciences are practiced.
