2010 Conference: Summer school

Summer School on Argumentation in Context 2010
International Institute for Argumentation Studies Amsterdam

After the 7th ISSA Conference, the International Institute for Argumentation Studies Amsterdam organizes the Summer School on Argumentation in Context 2010. The Summer School will be taught by members of the research group Argumentation in Discourse directed by Professor Frans van Eemeren. The program focuses on the analysis and evaluation of strategic maneuvering in argumentative discourse in argumentative activity types from various domains, including the political, the medical, and the legal domain.

The Summer School on Argumentation in Context 2010 will be held from Monday, July 5, to Friday, July 9. Participation is open to all international PhD students specializing in argumentation or having a strong interest in argumentation. The participation fee, which includes lunches and receptions, is € 150,- . Lodging is not included, but will be offered against reduced rates. Because no more than 20 PhD students can be admitted to the course, interested students are advised to register as soon as possible.

If you would like to participate in the Summer School, please send an e-mail with your personal data to Bart Garssen (b.j.garssen@uva.nl).

The teaching team is looking forward to welcoming you to the course!
