Abstract

In modern scientific and philosophical pub­lications the term “meta” got different mea­nings that even sometimes contradict one anot­her and usually do not keep their exact meanings resul­ting in cer­tain conceptual chaotic picture. This si­tu­ation demands to introduce necessary cor­rections and for­­mulate strict interpretations for suggested conceptions of met a theoretical sys­­tems.

The goal of this paper is applying aca­demi­cian G.Brutian’s conception of Rhodesian and Pla­to’s models of the theory of argumentation and the possibility of building the system of meta-argu­­men­tation by revealing the field of appli­ca­tion of these two models. This paper pro­ves that the Rho­desian model can be successfully applied to non-formal systems having methodological ra­ther than axiological nature if the demands of the model are satisfied. This requires also to take into ac­count the possible variations of Rhodesian mo­dels of argumentation and choose the most ef­fec­tive of them. On the other hand the Pla­to's mo­del of argumentation is applicable to fields of argumentation that are completely forma­lized and could be presented as whole general theory.
