Argumentation: The Study of Effective Reasoning, 2nd Edition David Zarefsky

2018-08-08 17:14:32 UTC  

and JDM won't take it off slow mo

2018-08-08 17:14:37 UTC  

Is where I got it.

"Argumentation theory, or argumentation, is the interdisciplinary study of how conclusions can be reached through logical reasoning; that is, claims based, soundly or not, on premises."

2018-08-08 17:15:17 UTC  

" It includes the arts and sciences of civil debate, dialogue, conversation, and persuasion. It studies rules of inference, logic, and procedural rules in both artificial and real world settings"

2018-08-08 17:15:30 UTC  

sound about right?

2018-08-08 17:15:49 UTC  

or did he use a very different definition that he made up for his book

2018-08-08 17:15:56 UTC  

so... how is that not debating?

At the end of a debate, people draw their own conclusions and either agree or disagree

2018-08-08 17:16:13 UTC  

i guess there is a chicken and the egg problem where

2018-08-08 17:16:13 UTC  

Close enough.

2018-08-08 17:16:29 UTC  

debate requires argumentation, but argumentation includes debate

2018-08-08 17:16:30 UTC  

I just use Merriam webster when i googled the word

"the act or process of forming reasons and of drawing conclusions and applying them to a case in discussion"

2018-08-08 17:16:55 UTC  

Okay, it's not adversarial. Debate is.

2018-08-08 17:17:00 UTC  

argumentation doesn't have to be a debate,

You can make your argument without having a counter-argument given,

By preaching for example

2018-08-08 17:17:18 UTC  

Debate requires it, but it is not debate, sound fair?

2018-08-08 17:17:32 UTC  

Argumentation has an interlocutor, but it's not a debate.

2018-08-08 17:17:50 UTC  

Debate requires arguments to be presented, but it's not argumentation.

2018-08-08 17:18:01 UTC  

presenting arguments is argumentation

2018-08-08 17:18:05 UTC  

No.

2018-08-08 17:18:19 UTC  

I like how people try to redefine words.

2018-08-08 17:18:28 UTC  

I'm not redefining a word.

2018-08-08 17:18:38 UTC  

I'm using the original definition.

2018-08-08 17:18:50 UTC  

the action or process of reasoning systematically in support of an idea, action, or theory. ?

2018-08-08 17:18:52 UTC  

that is debatable

2018-08-08 17:18:56 UTC  

lol

2018-08-08 17:18:58 UTC  

damn you got me there,

I didn't get to talk to the guy who invented the word 😦

2018-08-08 17:19:05 UTC  

you'd have to prove that was the first ever use of the term

2018-08-08 17:19:06 UTC  

i have to go with a dictionary definition

2018-08-08 17:19:21 UTC  

which, technically, it isn't even the first use, give that its the second edition

2018-08-08 17:19:31 UTC  

but it most likely didn't change much

2018-08-08 17:20:03 UTC  

you guys arguing over semantics?

2018-08-08 17:20:17 UTC  

yes

2018-08-08 17:20:20 UTC  

Actually, no.

2018-08-08 17:20:28 UTC  

we're debating!

2018-08-08 17:20:29 UTC  

.... there is irony here

2018-08-08 17:20:30 UTC  

😛

2018-08-08 17:20:41 UTC  

its semantics ultimately, but thats 90% of internet debate

2018-08-08 17:20:49 UTC  

<:NFA:354470494747230208>

2018-08-08 17:21:00 UTC  

that's because people's arguments suck without redefining words.
