Abstract

This paper attempts to trace a series of theoretical and political challenges between the early 1970s and the mid-1980s that advocates of Canadian informal logic movement had to overcome for making informal logic as a legitimate philosophical inquiry. Based on a historical narrative that reveals a trajectory of the development of informal logic using oral history interviews and archival research, this paper offers proposals for a research agenda for history of argumentation/informal logic.
