In this article we present an axiomatic characterization for the ensconcement-based contractions. We study the interrelation
among ensconcement-based contractions and brutal contractions, and we present two ways of defining an ensconcement
relation by means of a base contraction operation. Finally, we study the interrelations among ensconcement-based contraction
and epistemic entrenchment-based contractions and among brutal contractions and severe withdrawals.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
