Virtue reversed: Principal argumentative vices in political debate

Abstract

Contributing to an understanding of the true virtues of argumentation, this paper
sketches and exemplifies a theoretically reasoned but simple typology of argumentative vices or ‘malpractices’ that are rampant in political debate in modern democracies. The typology reflects, in negative, a set of argumentative norms, thus making a bid for something that civic instruction might profitably teach students at all levels about deliberative democracy.
