Abstract

I address some major critical arguments against a constructive truth concept and intuitionist logic. I put the notions of in principle possibilities and valid constructions (mathematical proofs) under scrutiny. I argue that the objections against a constructive account of truth miss target, thus they are not decisive. Eventually, constructivism is at least as cogent and natural a stance as realism.
