Description
Argumentation in Complex Communication examines how arguments function when more than two parties participate in discussions, a departure from traditional two-party debate models. Lewiński and Aakhus investigate the unique challenges of polylogical argumentation, where disagreements emerge across multiple perspectives simultaneously.
The work synthesizes argumentation theory with communication studies, offering both theoretical foundations and practical strategies. It addresses how participants construct, present, and respond to arguments in multi-party settings such as business meetings, public forums, and organizational decision-making. The authors demonstrate how understanding argumentation dynamics can improve conflict resolution and collaborative problem-solving.
This comprehensive resource is essential for scholars of rhetoric and communication, organizational leaders, and anyone navigating complex disputes involving multiple stakeholders. It bridges the gap between traditional argumentation studies and modern polylogue communication.
