"It is clear that multiples in situation can differ more or less, resemble one another, be nearer or farther and so on. It is thus necessary to admit that what governs appearing is not the ontological composition of a particular being (a multiple) but rather the relational evaluations which are determined by the situation and which localize that being within it. Unlike the legislation of the pure multiple, these evaluations do not always identify local dif- ference with global difference. They are not ontological. That is why we will give the name ‘logic’ to the laws of the relational network which determine the worldly appearing of multiple-being. Every world possesses its own logic, which is the legislation of appearing, or of the ‘there’ of being-there." -- Badiou
