Why dialogical logic

The aim of this paper is to present the dialogical approach to logic as an interesting alternative to the model-theoretic approach. In the introduction I plead for pluralism concerning logical systems and logical methodology before giving a short outline of Dialogical Logic. Then, I discuss and reject several prejudices against Dialogical Logic. I present three conceptual distinctions that are characteristic of the dialogical approach to logic (namely, formal vs. general truth, level of games vs. level of strategies and particle rules vs. structural rules) and their fruitfulness for logical research is demonstrated at the hand of some examples.
