Abstract

This paper explores, through an application example, connections between argumentation and another type of methods often involved in decision problems, namely, multicriteria analysis. A novel argumentative analysis framework is proposed and applied to assess a short supply chain device for food aid, regarding different categories of criteria. The analysis leads to some feedback concerning argumentation systems.
