Compromise As Deep Virtue: Evolution And Some Limits Of Argumentation, Philip Rose
Compromise As Deep Virtue: Evolution And Some Limits Of Argumentation, Philip Rose
OSSA Conference Archive
If argument forms evolve then the possible existence of localized argument forms may create an interpretive impasse between locally distinct argument communities. Appeal to evolutionarily ‘deep’ argument forms may help, but might be strained in cases where emergent argument forms are not reducible to their base conditions. Overcoming such limits presupposes the virtue of compromise, suggesting that compromise may stand as ‘deep virtue’ within argumentative forms of life.
