Argumentation in Mathematics
2013
In The Uses of Argument, Stephen Toulmin (1958) introduced a model of argumentation, in which what may be called the ‘layout of arguments’ is represented. This model has become a classic in argumentation theory and has been used in the analysis, evaluation and construction of arguments. Toulmin’s main thesis is that, in principle, one can make a claim of rationality for any type of argument, and that the criterion of validity depends on the nature of the problem in question. He rejects the idea of universal norms for evaluation of argumentation and that formal logic provides these norms. There is an essential difference between the norms which are relevant to the evaluation of everyday argu…
Valoración aristotélico-argumentativa del caso Iguala, a propósito de la Comisión por la Verdad y la Justicia
2022
En la presente investigación se analiza la fundamentación de la sentencia de amparo en revisión 203/2017 del Caso Iguala, en su resolución de conformar una comisión investigadora de la verdad y la justicia, para esclarecer y resolver el caso de los 43 desaparecidos. Desde la teoría aristotélica de la argumentación se busca estudiar la sentencia y decantar sus resultados lógico-argumentales a partir de dicho modelo hermenéutico. Finalmente, se evaluará su racionalidad de acuerdo con el paradigma tríadico: analítico-dialéctico-retórico que compone la lógica de Aristóteles, para ver si los argumentos presentados se justifican y convencen en sí mismos.
Operative Gesichtspunkte bei der Diskussion des Weberschen Gesetzes
1977
The analysis of structures of argumentation in historical controversies is considered to be a basic contribution to the dynamics of theories. In this paper attention is drawn to the occurence of operational arguments in the history of physics. This is to be discussed especially in respect to the nineteenth-century debates on the consistency of Wilhelm Weber's electrodynamic law with the principle of conservation of energy.
Pojęcia definicji i quasi-definicji perswazyjnej
2016
Charles L. Stevenson w swoim dobrze znanym artykule pt. Persuasive definitions wprowadza pojęcie definicji perswazyjnej – narzędzia argumentacyjnego, które umożliwia mówcy zmianę preferencji i postawy słuchaczy poprzez zmianę treści pojęciowej (znaczenia opisowego) definiowanego słowa. Na marginesie tej analizy wprowadzone zostaje także pojęcie quasi-definicji perswazyjnej. Dzięki temu narzędziu zmieniającym znaczenie pojęciowe, można zmienić lub zniszczyć znaczenie emotywne quasi-definiowanego słowa. To, co sprawia, że użytkowanie tych narzędzi argumentacyjnych jest możliwe, to przede wszystkim brak wyraźnej treści znaczeniowej terminów, które mają być zdefiniowane perswazyjnie lub quasi-p…
Spain and Facebook in the 2019 EP Election Campaign
2021
The 2019 European Parliament (EP) election in Spain took place against a backdrop of parliamentary instability and the unresolved Catalan problem that contributed to political polarisation. The EP electoral campaign also coincided with campaigns at local, regional and national levels. The results indicate that all Spanish parties do not use Facebook for interaction, but only for top-down argumentation. Although major Spanish parties continue to lead the activity on Facebook, the populist parties monopolise users’ engagement. Finally, the findings clearly show that the 2019 European election in Spain was no longer a second-, but a third-order election.
¡Qué quejicosos! Buzón de quejas a través del aprendizaje cooperativo
2017
Resumen: En este artículo se ofrece una experiencia práctica enmarcada dentro del aprendizaje cooperativo, que crea una interdependencia positiva propicia para el aprendizaje. Para ello, después de una breve aproximación teórica al aprendizaje cooperativo, la argumentación y los actos de habla de queja, así como del género textual «carta de reclamación», se expone la propuesta de nivel B2 organizada en diferentes pasos: la selección de equipos, el análisis de cartas de reclamación, la modificación de los equipos, la asignación de roles, así como la escritura de cartas y posterior evaluación. Se trabajan distintas destrezas, además de conseguir que los alumnos interactúen como en la vida rea…
Teaching Argumentation Theory and Practice: The Case of 12 Angry Men
2011
The aim of this contribution is to illustrate how the pragmadialectical model of critical discussion may be explained and studied with the jurors' deliberations in the film 12 Angry Men. The film itself may be understood as an argument by example, and to defend this idea we take into consideration the thesis that the filmmaker wants to establish, the constraints of the medium, and the three classical perspectives on argumentation.
Fine and Coarse Granular Argument Classification before Clustering
2021
Computational argumentation and especially argument mining together with retrieval enjoys increasing popularity. In contrast to standard search engines that focus on finding documents relevant to a query, argument retrieval aims at finding the best supporting and attacking premises given a query claim, e.g., from a predefined collection of arguments. Here, a claim is the central part of an argument representing the standpoint of a speaker with the goal to persuade the audience, and a premise serves as evidence to the claim. In addition to the actual retrieval process, existing work has focused on (1) classifying polarities of arguments into supporting or opposing, (2) classifying arguments …
Taking Organizational Implementation Seriously: The Case of IOS Implementation
2006
Despite of the rapid technical development, failures in information systems implementation are common and it seems obvious that the implementation of inter-organizational systems (IOS) include all the same possibilities for failures as intra-organizational systems - and unfortunately even some more. In this paper, we present some empirically proven means for avoiding problems during the implementation of IOSs. Our argumentation is based on the idea of organizational implementation of information systems, where the phases before and after the technical implementation are considered to be the most critical ones. The data from a case study are used to illustrate and support the ideas presented.
Developing and Testing Speaking Skills in Academic Discourse
2014
Teaching speaking is an essential aspect of developing students’ sociolinguistic competence in a foreign language at any level. English studies at the tertiary level offer a variety of courses for practicing speaking and helping students reach the C1 and C2 level in BA and MA studies, respectively. However, it is not only the level that differentiates between BA and MA studies, but also aspects of register and style. Beginning with the subjects generally called Conversation, Speaking, Oral reproduction, Argumentation skills, Debating or Public speaking (BA studies), students gradually advance to Conversation based on academic texts (MA studies). This transition requires students to raise th…
