DESCRIPTION:<p>Organiser:&nbsp\;<a target="_blank">Agnieszka Rostalska\, Ghent University</a></p>\n<p>Keynote Speaker:&nbsp\;Douglas L. Berger\, Leiden University</p>\n<p>Formalized approaches to philosophical argumentation\, conducted in specific genres of debate\, were developed in most World Religious Traditions\, and are not at all exclusively distinctive of &ldquo\;Western&rdquo\; philosophical disputation.</p>\n<p>This workshop\, part of the 4th World Congress on Logic and Religion\, explores cross-cultural perspectives on argumentation\, specifically\, those that governed how different traditions engaged in philosophical debates.</p>\n<p>Suggested topics include - but are not limited to - the following:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Argumentation - the epistemic standards of rational reflection\;</li>\n<li>Application of argumentative techniques for understanding religious phenomena\;</li>\n<li>Formal approaches to philosophico-religious arguments: especially the frameworks of inference\, suppositional reasoning\, parallelism\, deductive reasoning\, logical fallacies\, contradictions and debate\;</li>\n<li>Techniques for defending/challenging/persuading (including misleading an opponent) in situations of doubt or disagreement\, especially: certification\, persuasion\, refutation\, and trickery in debate\;</li>\n<li>Comparison &ndash\; differences and commonalities in argumentative practices across cultures.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The participants will inquire into how the relations between logic and religion are supported by rational inquiry. They will scrupulously examine a wide range of arguments postulated by philosophers and logicians.</p>\n<p>Papers with comparative and/or cross-cultural components are particularly welcome.</p>\n<p>Submit a one-page abstract by June 17th to&nbsp\;arostalska@gmail.com</p>
