This paper starts with a short survey of different ways to define the notion of inconsis- tency in fuzzy logic systems. As a result, we provide a first notion of inconsistency by means of the absence of models. Subsequently, we define two measures of con- sistency that belong purely to the fuzzy paradigm; in the sense that both measures coincide with the crisp notion of consistency when the set of truth values is {0, 1}. Accordingly, we can state that the two provided measures of consistence are notions of consistence based on degrees, bringing back the spirit of fuzzy logic into the notion of consistency. %K Inconsistency %K Fuzzy logic %K Measure of consistency %~ Universidad de Cádiz
