Abstract

A general algebraic formalism for the study of local contextual hidden variable theories is presented. Contextuality, which is a property of all consistent hidden variable theories, is interpreted as a manifestation of the inadequacy of the algebra of quantum observables to completely describe physical systems. The Bell inequalities obstruction to locality is overcome by the use of a generalized probability theory.
