In Brandom’s (1994) Making It Explicit, inferentialism was founded and developed as a relatively clear-cut philosophical edifice, and Brandom’s subsequent writings, despite adding some new stocks, have not changed its layout significantly. However, the edifice is surrounded by several burgeoning neighborhoods that threaten-or promise, depending on one’s view-to mesh with it and to change its nature significantly. One of these neighborhoods is constituted by a development within logic, where the term inferentialism has emerged independently of Brandom’s teaching and is now flourishing, somewhat overlapping with the Brandomian variety. Another neighborhood is emerging in connection with the current naturalistic trends of philosophy, which are closely interweaved with natural science, it brings about questions of the feasibility of the Brandomian picture of language and of human society from the viewpoint of scientific findings. A further neighborhood concerns the intricate relationship of inferentialism with the philosophical tradition, especially German idealism. And there are still other, smaller neighborhoods to consider.
