The contemporary emergence of the jurisprudential model
Perelman in the information age
pp. 305-319
Abstract
For over thirty years, Chaim Perelman admonished philosophers of argument to reject the widely accepted mathematical model of reasoning associated with cartesian philosophy.1 Much recent scholarship has supported Perelman's call to reject mathematical models of reasoning. Goodnight and Farrell, for example, "highlight the failure of technical knowledge to resolve social, ethical, or political dilemmas."2
