Along with the two towering achievements by Soren Hallden and Georg Henrik von Wright are some less in-depth though equally interesting attempts by philosophers, who while affiliated with Hallden and/or von Wright in their use of an intuitionistic approach, see the issue of evolving a logic of preference differently from what is found in the above two cases. This group of thinkers, composed mainly by Lennart Aqvist, Roderick Chisholm, Ernest Sosa, and Bengt Hansson, represent in part a historical connection between Hallden and, von Wright. Collectively their work constitutes a strong statement as to the influence which Hallden’s treatise had on his contemporaries. In each of the studies to be considered below, one invariably finds some reference to Hallden’s incisive work, as well as the expression of a need to seek a different direction, by way of improving upon what the former had achieved. Individually, however, these writings exhibit a partial historical continuation, in the sense that though Aqvist writes between the time of Hallden’s publication and before the appearance of von Wright’s treatise, Chisholm, Sosa and Hansson present their views subsequent to von Wright’s monongraph in 1963, and are thus not entirely in sequence before von Wright. Their work, however, is influenced more predominantly by Hallden than by von Wright, and thus a discussion of what they have to say deserves attention here rather than further on.
