The concepts of logica docens and logica utens and the discussion of the distinction between them became popular among logicians since the Middle Ages. Of course, this duality was not considered for a long time after the Middle Ages until Peirce, an American logician and pragmatist philosopher, reintroduced it into logical discussions. Peirce himself used these concepts to express his views on the nature of logic. Today, other logicians such as Priest have used this duality to express and explain various logical issues. In discussions such as examining criticisms of logic, teaching logic, the issue of adopting a logic, logical pluralism, the issue of the possibility of reforming and revising logic, etc. Using this duality can lead to a better confrontation with problems and therefore helps to better explain problems and find solutions to them.
