The topic of this paper is Relative Constructivism. We are concerned with classifying non-constructive principles from the constructive viewpoint. We compare, up to provability in Intuitionistic Arithmetic, sub-classical principles like Markov's Principle, (a function-free version of) Weak K?nig's Lemma, Post's Theorem, Excluded Middle for simply Existential and simply Universal statements, and many others. Our motivations are rooted in the experience of one of the authors with an extended program extraction and of another author with bound extraction from classical proofs.
