Abstract

This paper studies the relation between persuasive argumentation and the speaker’s epistemic attitude. Dung-style abstract argumentation and dynamic epistemic logic provide the necessary tools to characterize the notion of persuasion. Within abstract argumentation, persuasive argumentation has been previously studied from a game-theoretic perspective. These approaches are blind to the fact that, in real-life situations, the epistemic attitude of the speaker determines which set of arguments will be disclosed by her in the context of a persuasive dialogue. This work is a first step to fill this gap. For this purpose we extend one of the logics of Schwarzentruber et al. with dynamic operators, designed to capture communicative phenomena. A complete axiomatization for the new logic via reduction axioms is provided. Within the new framework, a distinction between actual persuasion and persuasion from the speaker’s perspective is made. Finally, we explore the relationship between the two notions.

Fußnoten
1
See [14] for this notion of dialectics and [1] for its relation to argumentation frameworks.
 
2
Nevertheless, some papers [8, 9] have combined tools from propositional dynamic logic and abstract argumentation. We will come back to them in the conclusions (Sect. 5).
 
3
PI stands for positive introspection and GNI for generalized negative introspection. The latter captures standard negative introspection as a special case where the indexes i and j are the same.
 
4
The operation \((\cdot )^{a!}\) can be understood as a special case of public substitution [15, 22]. From the perspective of dynamic awareness logic [2], the same action can be understood in terms of the consider action, with the only difference that here arguments (and not formulas) are the content of announcements. A detailed comparison between the three operations is out of the scope of this paper.
 
5
In Table 2 \(\delta [\varphi /\psi ]\) is the result of substituting one or more occurrences of \(\psi \) in \(\delta \) by\(\varphi \).
 
6
Given an AF \((A,\rightsquigarrow )\) and two sets of arguments \(B,C\subseteq A\), the attack relation is lifted from single arguments to sets of arguments as follows: \(B\rightsquigarrow C\) iff \(\exists b\in B,\exists c \in C (b\rightsquigarrow c)\).
