Abstract

The interpretation of a norm is often uncertain and conflicting. In this paper we propose a model for arguing about legal interpretation, which considers the problems of vagueness. After motivating our adoption of graded categories as a tool to tackle the problem of open texture in legal interpretation, we introduce a model based on fuzzy logic and argumentation. Then, we conduct a case study by using an example from medically assisted reproduction.
