Are Humans Poor at Arguing? From the ‘Argumentative Theory of Reasoning’ back to a Rhetorical Theory of Argumentation

2018

Starting from Sperber and Mercier’s theory (2011) on the relationship between reasoning and arguing, we will try to rethink the link between rhetoric and argumentation. Using Aristotelian rhetoric as a theoretical framework, we will focus on two related features: 1) the nature and the role of argumentation inferences in classical models of rhetoric; 2) the role of normativity in assessing a naturalistic description of what we make when we argue.

Rhetorical deliberation. A sustainable normativism from a Gorgianic-Aristotelian perspective

2018

Starting from the discursive turn that has characterized democracy since the 80s of the last century, our article tries to outline a form of sustainable normativism. To do this, we use a theoretical framework derived from ancient Greek rhetoric and in particular from the reflection of Gorgias and Aristotle. In our perspective, on the one hand, the Gorgianic view is a useful reminder of the role that the pursuit of power and the possibility of conflict unavoidably play in the form of argumentation specific to the public sphere, that is, deliberation. On the other hand, Aristotle, thanks to his emphasis on the link between logos and desire and his analysis of truth available in deliberative c…

Collective Intentionality, Language, and Normativity: A Problem and a Possible Solution for the Analysis of Cooperation

2015

In this paper I discuss Searle's analysis of social ontology in the light of his account of the sources of normativity as rooted in the logical structure of language. I conclude that, though his theory of normativity may appear to be inconsistent with his theory collective intentionality, it is really our Background sense of the other that creates a sense of community even before the actual functioning of collective intentionality and language, thereby escaping the dilemma between individualism and collectivism.

Rivoluzione cognitivista e teoria del diritto: un programma di ricerca

2017

Questo scritto ha un carattere esclusivamente programmatico. È dedicato alla presentazione delle linee essenziali di un programma di ricerca nel quale siamo impegnati già da un po’ di tempo, e che intendiamo sviluppare nel prossimo futuro. Nei primi due paragrafi tratteggiamo sommariamente il contesto culturale e scientifico della “rivoluzione cognitivista”, nel quale il nostro programma si colloca (behavioural law and economics; responsabilità e imputabilità; euristiche e bias nella decisione giudiziale). Nel terzo paragrafo elenchiamo le linee di ricerca affini già battute da altri autori. Il quarto paragrafo è dedicato alla formulazione del nucleo centrale del nostro programma: quali son…

Ronald Dworkin e il positivismo giuridico: un bilancio provvisorio

2014

The controversy between Dworkin and legal positivism has lasted more than forty years. After Dworkin’s death, a reflection on this debate is needed. This paper faces some of the most important and popular arguments Dworkin advanced against legal positivism. More precisely, the article is divided in two main parts. The first is devoted to a critical presentation of three arguments developed by Dworkin in his early essays against Hart’s practice theory of norms. In particular, these arguments challenge a) the idea that law is a system of rules; b) the autonomy of legal obligation from moral one and c) the idea that judges exercise (strong) discretion in hard cases. The second part analyses tw…

Regole. Un saggio di psicodeontica

2022

In this article, I first introduce a naturalistic method of inquiry in meta-normative issues, that, following a suggestion by B. Celano, I call “psychodeontics”. I then provide an example of how the method works, focusing on three aspects of the phenomenon of rules and rule-guided behaviour: the fact that rules are reasons for action, the relation between rules and habits, and the “entrenchment” of rules.

Exploring the Normative Foundation of Journalism Education : Nordic Journalism Educators’ Conceptions of Future Journalism and Professional Qualifica…

2022

This article deals with Nordic journalism educators’ conceptions of journalism by placing the concept of normativity at the center. The values, norms and ideas concerning journalism and journalistic practice have previously been studied by journalists and journalism students around the world and in the Nordics, while the Nordic journalism educators’ conceptions have remained more or less without attention. Nevertheless, journalism educators play a crucial role in defining what journalism is and what it is not, and thus largely affect future practitioners’ ideas of journalism. Using a questionnaire that has been employed in previous studies, journalism educators within the …

Prostituzione. Aporie e tabù di un nuovo diritto penale tutorio

2018

Molteplici sono le forme attraverso le quali la prostituzione può essere esercitata e plurimi sono i suoi modelli normativi di regolamentazione: tradizionalmente, si contendono il campo il proibizionismo, il regolamentarismo e l’abolizionismo; più di recente la c.d. decriminalizzazione e il c.d. neo-proibizionismo. In questo volume, dopo una breve disamina delle possibili forme e dei plurimi significati della prostituzione, ci si sofferma preliminarmente su alcuni ordinamenti-tipo che presentano caratteristiche peculiari ora dell’uno ora dell’altro dei modelli normativi attuabili, tenendo conto anche di recenti e significative sentenze di talune Corti supreme in ordinamenti di tipo abolizio…
