Document Summary
10:30 fallacies of insufficient reasons are the only ones to worry about the extra step in step 5. Criteria for a well formed issue (table 1. 1) 28:00 part 3 after diagraming indicate whether weak or strong at some point. 32:00 some fallacies have more than one name. Principle of argumentation violated when irrelevant reasons given. Fallacy of appeal to ignorance always violates burden of proof. Fallacy of begging the question violates truth seeking principle, argumentation principle, and burden of proof as it gives no reasons at all. Fallacy of equivocation violates truth seeking principle, argumentation principle (not presenting reasons clearly by shifting meaning) Falllacy of hasty generalization, sweeping generalization, false cause, slippery slope truth seeking and argumentation. *** when confused about which aspect of argumentation process it violates use the 3 conditions for a good argument -> acceptability violation indicates ambiguity, which violates truth seeking.
