The webinar this week introduced us to the the Rogerian arrangement of arguments. This lesson will include a little review of Rogerian arrangement and then in the next lesson, you will put the Rogerian arrangement into action. Watch the video below for a brief overview of Rogerian arranged arguments. Then move onto the content below. |
To make it clear, the other two arrangements we cover emphasize a "I win, you lose" solution. A Rogerian arrangement emphasizes a "You win, I win" solution, making it good if you want to ethos and pathos appeals a lot in your argument.
It's important to note that you still make a claim in Rogerian arrangements, support it with evidence, and provide warrant. These terms may not be included flat out, but as was discussed in previous lessons, you always make a claim in any argument and support it. As you look at the outline below, consider where claim, data, and warrant would be in a Rogerian argument.
Think of Rogerian arrangement as a negotiation strategy where you are trying to build bridges between you and your audience. Due to it being more of a negotiation strategy, this arrangement is not the best to use for analyzing arguments like we could with Toulmin. It is more of a way of building an argument rather than analyzing one.
