Vale Press Critical Thinking Specialists Home Titles Calendar Contact ... About Us Main Menu Home Titles Calendar Order Form ... About Us Popular Links Critical Thinking Consortium Philosophy Documentation Center American Forensic Association AILACT ... ISSA The Philosophy of Argument by Trudy Govier Contents About the Author From Chapter Six: "The Poverty of Formalism," pp. 83-84 For most of this century logic has been regarded as formal logic. And yet philosophers have also assumed that logic provides us with the concepts and norms we need for evaluating arguments. Over the last twenty years the multitude of texts, papers, and courses on informal logic and critical thinking teach an important lesson: we cannot have it both ways. Either logic is identified with formal logic and does not give us the standards we need for assessing arguments in natural language, or logic may give us such standards and is not to be identified with formal logic. If logic is regarded only as formal logic, then logic has at best a modest bearing on the evaluation of natural language arguments. If logic is only formal logic, then logic is useful only for appraising the inference from premises to conclusion in a subset of arguments, those properly regarded as aiming for deductive validity, and translatable, with reasonable accuracy, into formal terms. Rather than restricting logic to formal logic and paying the price of renouncing the claim of logic to be an important tool for the evaluation of arguments, we may endorse a broader conception of logic (one which has good historical credentials, since it is prominent in the work of Aristotle) and maintain the connection between argument appraisal and logic. Such is the orientation of those who work in informal logic.
