A pervasive aspect of human communication and sociality is
argumentation: the practice of making and criticizing reasons in
the context of doubt and disagreement. Argumentation underpins and
shapes the decision-making, problem-solving, and conflict
management which are fundamental to human relationships. However,
argumentation is predominantly conceptualized as two parties
arguing pro and con positions with each other in one place. This
dyadic bias undermines the capacity to engage argumentation in
complex communication in contemporary, digital society. This book
offers an ambitious alternative course of inquiry for the analysis,
evaluation, and design of argumentation as polylogue: various
actors arguing over many positions across multiple places. Taking
up key aspects of the twentieth-century revival of argumentation as
a communicative, situated practice, the polylogue framework engages
a wider range of discourses, messages, interactions, technologies,
and institutions necessary for adequately engaging the contemporary
entanglement of argumentation and complex communication in human
activities.
