Bibliographical note
Funding Information:It goes without saying that we would like to thank everyone who helped us in any way in conducting this research. We express our gratitude to Francisca Snoeck Henkemans for suggesting and translating the political advertisements analysed in Chapter 5. In addition, we thank the Early Dispute Resolution Center of the University of Dundee for having shared the DVD of a case analysed in Chapter 9 with us; and Chris Reed and Mathilde Janier for having allowed us to reuse it. We are also grateful to the Swiss National Science Foundation for funding the project that provided the data that are at the basis of Chapter 9 (project RefraMe ‘The inferential dynamics of reframing within dispute mediators’ argumentation’, Contract no. 10001C_17004/1, 2017–2021; applicant: Sara Greco, collaborator: Chiara Jermini – Martinez Soria), and to the Dutch Research Council (NWO) for funding through their Talent Program Veni (VI.Veni.19IS032) the research on medical argumentation reported in Chapter 11.
Funding Information:
Although the advertisement concerns elections for the Provincial Council of North Holland, the PVV focuses entirely on national issues, such as VAT, health insurance, pensions, and the treatment of immigrants. The advertisement criticises the VVD’s governmental policies and that party’s political attitude for negatively affecting the interests of the PVV voters. This criticism includes financial measures supported by the VVD as well as the consequences of their “generous” attitude towards immigrants. Here the PVV’s strategic consideration (b) appears to be that it can be reasonably and effectively maintained that the electoral result they aim for can be achieved by concentrating on issues familiar to their primary audience and perceived as relevant to their self-interest, while ignoring issues unfamiliar to them or not considered relevant to their self-interest. The VVD’s (or the PVV’s!) policies and political attitude regarding issues that are pertinent to the province of North Holland, such as spatial planning and protection of the environment, are not discussed – except for their reprehensible financial consequences.
