A general definition of hidden-variable theories in terms of the dual structure of states and propositions is proposed. As a consequence of a theorem due to Zierler and Schlessinger, this definition implies a violation of the quantum ordering of propositions in the corresponding hidden-variable theory. This violation is shown explicitly for the theory of measurement due to Bohm and Bub.
