He argues that when we read critically it can be helpful to analyse arguments from different perspectives. He suggests that arguments in texts can be weak or fallacious for three reasons: that the authors may have mis-stated the facts (material fallacies); that they have wrongly used words (verbal fallacies); or that they have drawn the wrong inferences (logical fallacies). Play devil's advocate as you read through this article. ]]> 2021-09-19 12:19:40 UTC https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1751586858 caroline1 https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1798998486 2021-10-07 07:29:50 UTC https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1798998486 caroline1 https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1799000104 2021-10-07 07:30:40 UTC https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1799000104 caroline1 https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1799000476 2021-10-07 07:30:52 UTC https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1799000476 caroline1 https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1799003417 2021-10-07 07:32:14 UTC https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1799003417 caroline1 https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1799006861 2021-10-07 07:34:03 UTC https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1799006861 caroline1 https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1799014519 2021-10-07 07:37:55 UTC https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1799014519 Guangming DailyOnline caroline1 https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1799041692 2021-10-07 07:51:20 UTC https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1799041692 caroline1 https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1799051556 2021-10-07 07:56:09 UTC https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/1799051556 Is Chinese society a civil society? https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/3161833488 2024-10-09 21:55:29 UTC https://padlet.com/caroline1/conceptualisation_of_civil_society/wish/3161833488
