Argumentation theory

Argumentation theory is the study of how people make arguments and how they are used in different situations. An argument is a set of statements that are used to persuade someone else to believe something. It can be based on facts, opinions, beliefs, or any combination of these elements. Argumentation theory helps us understand how people use arguments to try to convince each other about something. It helps people come to an agreement about an issue by discussing the pros and cons and looking at the evidence. When arguing, it is important to be respectful, patient, and open-minded so that everyone can have an equal chance to state their opinion.
