DEBATE DYNAMICS HOW CONTROVERSY IMPROVES OUR BE...

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.
