Abstract
A number of authors have suggested the use of argumentation techniques as the basis for negotiation dialogues between agents. In this paper, we augment this work by investigating the use of argumentation as the basis for a wider range of types of dialogue. The approach we take is based upon MacKenzie's dialogue game DC, and we show that a translation of this into our system of argumentation can support a subset of the types of dialogue identified by Walton and Krabbe.Keywords
