Argument

Return to Glossary

An Argument is a rule that provides the bridge between what we know or are assuming (sub-claims, evidence) and the claim we are investigating. The argument used depends on the type, trustworthiness and extent of available evidence and the nature of the claim. Note that “argument” is an overloaded word and we are using with a specific meaning here.
