Is critical argumentation an effective way to overcome
disagreement? And does the exchange of arguments bring opponents in
a controversy closer to the truth? This study provides a new
perspective on these pivotal questions. By means of multi-agent
simulations, it investigates the truth and consensus-conduciveness
of controversial debates. The book brings together research in
formal epistemology and argumentation theory. Aside from its
consequences for discursive practice, the work may have important
implications for philosophy of science and the way we construe
scientific rationality as well.
