Abstract
A knowledge is considered to be a partition of the Universe into classes of objects indiscernible with respect to the information available. So, knowledge of two agents may differ. In this paper a consistency-measure between knowledges is obtained. It is shown that the complement of consistency-measure, viz. the inconsistency-measure, is a metric under certain restrictions. Some initial axioms of a logic of consistency are proposed.
