    ------------------------------------------------------------
    The 3rd International Conference on Logic and Argumentation
    CLAR 2020, 6-9 April 2020, Hangzhou, China
    CALL FOR PAPERS
    ------------------------------------------------------------
    
    The 3rd International Conference on Logic and Argumentation (CLAR 2020) 
    invites interdisciplinary contributions from logic, artificial 
    intelligence, philosophy, computer science, linguistics, law, and other 
    areas studying logic and formal argumentation.
    
    CLAR 2020 will be held in Hangzhou, 6-9 April 2020, as part of the 
    Zhejiang Logic for AI Summit (ZJULogAI 2020). With a special focus on 
    ?methods and tools for explainable AI?, a core objective of ZJULogAI is 
    to present the latest developments and progress made on the crucial 
    question of how to make AI more transparent, trustworthy and 
    accountable, both in China as well as in the rest of the world. All 
    participants to CLAR 2020 have access to all other events of ZJULogAI as 
    well.
    
    Proceedings with accepted submissions will be available during the 
    conference, and extended versions will be published after the conference 
    in special issues of the Journal of Logic and Computation and the 
    Journal of Applied Logics.

    CLAR 2020 conference highlights recent advances in the two fields of 
    logic and argumentation and promotes communication between researchers 
    in logic and argumentation within and outside China. Previous
