Information and independence of argumentation

Abstract

In this paper, I sketch different degrees of independence of argumentation with respect to information. Although the notions of truth and information are central to our theory of argumentation, the notion of argumentative correction must have a certain independence with respect to them. The acceptability of an argument is closely related to the notions of truth, deducibility, information and opposition. Yet it also enjoys a certain freedom because of the possible existence of acceptable arguments without true premises or deductive development, and without information containment or argumentative opposition
