These validity claims are assessed through rational discourse, aiming for mutual understanding and consensus, forming the basis of his theory of communicative action._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.

Stephen E. Toulmin on Validity - Dictionary of Arguments
Habermas III 62 Validity/Toulmin/HabermasVsToulmin/Habermas: Toulmin does not clearly separate conventional claims of validity that depend on contexts of action from universal claims of validity. His examples show this: e. g. determination of sports results, causes of an infection, reasons for entrepreneurial decisions, justification of access rights, recommendations for action, aesthetic judgements. >Justification, >Judgments, >Science/Toulmin. III 63 Habermas: only the context determines the type of claim to validity. Example: A botanical classification is about the truth of a proposition. In contrast, the teaching of the same division by a teacher is about the claim to the comprehensibility of a semantic rule. >Language use, >Classification, >Systems._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
