  Abstract. Argumentation has gained popularity in recent years as a
  knowledge representation formalism to support, in particular, non-mono-
  tonic and paraconsistent reasoning. I will trace back the origins of two
  well-known argumentation frameworks (namely abstact argumentation
  and assumption-based argumentation) to work on the semantics of logic
  programming and abductive logic programming in the late eighties and
  early nineties. I will then discuss recent work with Claudia Schulz on
  the use of (assumption-based) argumentation to provide justifications
  for (non-)membership of literals in answer sets, illustrating one way in
  which argumentation can benefit back logic programming.
