"Bridging the gap between applied ethics and ethical theory, Ethical Argumentation draws on recent research in argumentation theory to develop a more realistic model of how ethical justification actually works. Douglas Walton presents a new model of ethical argumentation in which ethical justification is analyzed as a defeasible form of argumentation considered in a balanced dialogue. Walton's new model employs techniques such as: asking ..."

"The notion of burden of proof and its companion notion of presumption are central to argumentation studies. This book argues that we can learn a lot from how the courts have developed procedures over the years for allocating and reasoning with presumptions and burdens of proof, and from how artificial intelligence has built precise formal and computational systems to represent this kind of reasoning. The book provides a model of reasoni ..."
"Moreover the host, who has agreed to act as moderator for the discussion
between Helen and Bob on tipping, has made it clear to all the parties that
Helen's ultimate conclusion to be proved is the proposition that tipping is a bad
practice and Bob's ultimate conclusion to be proved is the proposition that tipping
is not a bad practice. Thus, Helen's burden of persuasion is to prove her ultimate
proposition and Bob's burden of persu ..."
"It does incorporate the argument from consequences in an indirect speech act.13
But this is a function of the way it is used as a sophistical tactic of argumentation.
It is misleading to claim that the ad baculum is fallacious simply because it is a
particular instance of the more general fallacy of argument from consequences.
Cederblom and Paulsen (1982) claimed that the argumentum ad baculum is a
fallacy because it is a "particul ..."

"One of the central questions of the French Revolution is what happened to the country from the time the monarchy collapsed in the summer of 1792, when the prospects for popular democracy seemed brightest, to the Terror of 1793-94, when the Committee of Public Safety ruled by fiat and repression. A key moment during this interim period was the so-called Federalist Revolt, when four provincial cities--Caen, Bordeaux, Lyon, and Marseille-- ..."

sounds like an instrument of propaganda. In another textbook, John Eric Nolt
describes appeal to popular opinion as an argument having two forms, where p
is a proposition and x an action (19 ..."
