Pragma dialectic
Pragma dialectics (also pragma dialectic theory , English: pragma dialectics ) is a theory of argumentation that was largely developed by the Amsterdam scientists Frans van Eemeren and Rob Grootendorst , which assumes an idealistic speech situation ( speech act theory ) and lays down rules for argumentative action.
Pragma dialecticians understand normal-language critical discussion as speech acts that are to be carried out and evaluated towards a reasonable goal using rules based on an idealized speech situation. Classically, these are ten rules that are intended to ensure an open and domination-free discourse , but other variants of the set of rules can also be found in the literature. Positions from Paul Grice and from discourse analysis were integrated into the theoretical justification of the approach.
The dialogical process is analytically divided into different phases and then the discussion is reconstructed. The pragma dialectic is considered to be the most influential continental European explanatory approach in argumentation theory, partly because of a strategically-internationally oriented publication policy.
