We give a resolution based decision procedure for the guarded fragment of [ANB96] . The relevance of the guarded fragment lies in the fact that many modal logics can be translated into it. In this way the guarded fragment acts as a framework explaining the nice properties of these modal logics. By constructing an effective decision procedure for the guarded fragment we define an effective procedure for deciding these modal logics. C. Kirchner and H.
