To be persuasive, the author has to be logical. But what does it mean to be logical? Many logical fallacies hide behind frequently used rhetorical techniques and have become so common in public discourse that it may be challenging to recognize them in an academic text. At the workshop, we will focus on the most common logical fallacies that weaken argumentation and discuss the ways to spot and avoid them. If you would like to be able to recognize breaches of logic in other authors’ train of thought and avoid logical fallacies in your own argumentation, this workshop is for you.
