Abstract

Logics of normality which have been suggested so far interpret normality non-statistically. In this sense, something is normally the case if it is true in the most typical or plausible circumstances. On the other hand, one might think of normality as majority. In this sense something is normally the case if it is true in most circumstances. The paper argues that a descriptive explication of normality must imply statistical majority. Finally it introduces a formal logic of statistical normality and compares it to other approaches.
