The paper aims to investigate the mechanisms of incorrect and misleading reasoning with particular reference to the argumentative fallacies theory conceived by Bentham in his Book of fallacies (1824). Bentham tried to introduce into parliamentary debates, which often concern questions concerning law and ethics, discussion procedures capable of allowing the reasoning to remain adherent to the facts it intends to describe, without using irrelevant and contradictory arguments on which deceptive propaganda is based.

Abstract
The paper aims to investigate the mechanisms of incorrect and misleading reasoning with particular reference to the argumentative fallacies theory conceived by Bentham in his Book of fallacies (1824). Bentham tried to introduce into parliamentary debates, which often concern questions concerning law and ethics, discussion procedures capable of allowing the reasoning to remain adherent to the facts it intends to describe, without using irrelevant and contradictory arguments on which deceptive propaganda is based.
