摘要

This article proposes an abstract framework for argumentation-based negotiation in which the impact of exchanging arguments on agents%26apos; theories is formally described, the different types of solutions in negotiation are investigated, and the added value of argumentation in negotiation dialogues is analysed. We study when, how and to which extent an exchange of arguments can be beneficial in negotiation. The results show that argumentation can improve the quality of an outcome but never decrease it.
