LaTeX Abstract:

In this article we introduce Contextual Deontic Logic (CDL) to analyze the
relation between deontic, contextual and defeasible reasoning. The optimal
state, and therefore the set of active obligations, can change radically when
the violation context changes. In such cases we say that the obligations only
in force in the previous violation context are defeated; contextual deontic
logic is therefore a defeasible deontic logic. This is expressed by the definition
OC(A|B) = O(A|B\-C): `A ought to be (done) if B is (done) in the context
where C is (done)' is defined as `A ought to be (done) if B is (done) unless
-C is (done).' The unless clause formalizes explicit exceptions and is
analogous to the justification in Reiter's default rules. CDL is a monotonic
defeasible deontic logic, because it has factual defeasibility but not
overridden defeasibility.
