In Fallacies and Judgments of Reasonableness, Frans H. van Eemeren,
Bart Garssen and Bert Meuffels report on their systematic empirical
research of the conventional validity of the pragma-dialectical
discussion rules. The experimental studies they carried out during
more than ten years start from the pragma-dialectical theory of
argumentation developed at the University of Amsterdam, their home
university. In these studies they test methodically the
intersubjective acceptability of the rules for critical discussion
proposed in this theory by confronting ordinary arguers who have
not received any special education in argumentation and fallacies
with discussion fragments containing both fallacious and
non-fallacious argumentative moves. The research covers a wide
range of informal fallacies. In this way, the authors create a
basis for comparing the theoretical reasonableness conception of
pragma-dialectics with the norms for judging argumentative moves
prevailing in argumentative practice. Fallacies and Judgments of
Reasonableness provides a unique insight into the relationship
between theoretical and practical conceptions of reasonableness,
supported by extensive empirical material gained by means of
sophisticated experimental research.
