“…The latter is reminiscent of the Frankfurt School's realization that there is an instrumentalization of reason and that reasoning and logical arguments can be directed toward not only purposes that benefit all, but also toward selfish or immoral purposes (Brunero, 2020). Representatives such as Max Horkheimer or Alfred Schmidt have frequently noted their affinity to Schopenhauer (Michaelis, 2023). For Schopenhauer, it is true that if reason is used for the good and the moral, the discussion partners argue purely logically, that is, they make an effort to exchange valid arguments.…”

Emily Thomas's seminal book The Meaning of Travel has brought the philosophy of travel back into the public eye in recent years. Thomas has shown that the topic of travel can be approached from numerous different perspectives, ranging from the historical to the conceptual‐analytical, to the political or even social‐philosophical perspectives. This article introduces another perspective, which Thomas only indirectly addresses, namely the argumentation‐theoretical perspective. It is notable that contemporary philosophy of travel lacks the nineteenth‐century approach of using diagrams and maps to examine arguments for and against travel. Since this approach starts with Schopenhauer, we first introduce his argument maps, discuss their advantages and disadvantages, and argue that a modified version is suitable to visualize and analyze arguments for and against traveling as presented in Thomas's work.
