CALL FOR PAPERS 
 
2nd Workshop on Argumentation in Artificial Intelligence and 
Philosophy: computational and philosophical perspectives 
(ARGAIP-2013) - Workshop of the XIII Conference of the Italian 
Association for Artificial Intelligence (AI*IA 2013)

Argumentation is an important and exciting research topic that cuts 
across a variety of disciplines: Philosophy, Psychology, 
Communications Studies, Linguistics and Computer Science, in 
particular Artificial Intelligence. More specifi call y, 
argumentation theory involves different ways for analyzing arguments 
and their relationships. In everyday life arguments are "reasons to 
believe and reasons to act". Until recent years, the idea of 
"argumentation" as the process of creating arguments for and against 
competing claims, was a subject of interest to philosophers and 
lawyers. In recent years, however, there has been a growth of 
interest in the subject from for mal and technical perspectives in 
Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence, and a wide use of 
argumentation technologies in practical applications. Here, 
argumentation is viewed as a mechanical procedure for interpreting 
events, organizing and presenting documents, and making decisions 
about actions. From a theoretical perspective, argumentation offers 
a novel framework providing new light on classical for ms of 
reasoning, such as logical deduction, induction, abduction and 
plausible reasoning, communication, explanations of advice, 
supporting discussion and negotiation in computer-supported 
cooperative work. From a human-computer interaction point of view, 
argumentation is a versatile technique that facilitates natural 
system behavior and is more easily understood by human users. 
In spite of the wide range of disciplines interested in 
Argumentation, scientific communities tend to be organized along 
disciplinary boundaries, with only moderate integration occurring 
between computational models and philosophical and linguistic 
theories of Argumentation. This workshop aims at rectifying this 
situation, bringing together people from various disciplines (most 
notably, Artificial Intelligence, Philosophy, Linguistics, and 
Psychology) and asking them to compare their methods and results in 
the study of Argumentation.
