I haven't been writing for a while but this was an important month for argumentation scholars. From June 29 to July 2 we have been experiencing the 7 ISSA conference in Amsterdam.
An impressive number of scholars has participated in this event, which was a really good occasion for scientific dialogue. For me personally, the ISSA conference this year has opened new interesting research paths. It has also allowed me to see different traditions of the study of argumentation, "encountering", for example, many interesting studies coming from rhetoricians working in the US.
We were a numerous group of Swiss researchers, including many PhD students working on argumentation in context - which is one of the results of the doctoral program Argupolis (www.argupolis.net).
The detailed conference program had been published here: http://cf.hum.uva.nl/issa/ISSA%20detailed%20programme%202010.pdf. The ISSA Conference proceedings are in the process of being prepared.
