Primes¶
- Dialectic
- the Socratic acceptance that dialectical inquiry may end in acknowledged aporia (inability to define the term or settle the question), but this recognized limit is epistemically valuable, distinguishing productive confusion from mere failure; and (4) the truth-tracking-vs-rhetorical-victory tension
This sourceStudies Plato's use of the dialogue form, including the emergence of dialectic and its differentiation from eristic; supports the truth-tracking-vs-rhetorical-victory tension (185).

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
