Zusammenfassung

We offer a critical analysis of Dummett’s anti-realist proposal, which is based upon three fundamental notions. Theory of meaning: his notion of meaning as use and his rejection of holism. Theory of truth: truth understood as proof in mathematics and as verification in the rest of the spheres of knowledge. Intuitionist criticism to classical logic: negation of the principle of excluded middle and of the notion of infinite.
