The uses and abuses of Meta-argument
Abstract
Reception: October 15, 2015 Accepted: January 5, 2016 The concepts of meta-argument and meta-argumentation are becoming increasingly important in argumentation theory. I will argue that an examination of the history and use of these concepts in argumentation theory and the logics of defeasible arguments allows us to distinguish three different senses of meta-argument.References
