About the Book

In Strategic Maneuvering in Argumentative Discourse, Frans H. van Eemeren brings together the dialectical and the rhetorical dimensions of argumentation by introducing the concept of strategic maneuvering. Strategic maneuvering refers to the arguer’s continual efforts to reconcile aiming for effectiveness with being reasonable. It takes place in all stages of argumentative discourse and manifests itself simultaneously in the choices that are made from the topical potential available at a particular stage, in adaptation to audience demand, and in the use of specific presentational devices. Strategic maneuvering derails when in the specific context in which the discourse takes place a rule for critical discussion has been violated, so that a fallacy has been committed. Van Eemeren makes clear that extending the pragma-dialectical approach to argumentation by taking account of strategic maneuvering leads to a richer and more precise method for analyzing and evaluating argumentative discourse.

Review :
This is an impressive book. For anyone interested in getting an up-to-date synopsis of this influential argumentation perspective, Strategic Maneuvering in Argumentative Discourse is a must read. Van Eemeren’s book offers its readers a comprehensive, unified, updated, self- contained, and well-written account of the extended theory of pragma-dialectics. As such it constitutes a key text of contemporary theory of argumentation, straight from the horse’s mouth. The author shows how the concept of strategic maneuvering can be used to combine dialectical and rhetorical points of view, and how the resulting extended theory works when applied to the analysis and evaluation of argumentation in various domains of communicative activity. The book contains fresh approaches to fallacies, burden of proof, and inconsistency. It is very rich in discussing historical roots as well as contributions from related contemporary research, and even sets up an agenda for future research.
