👉 In philosophy and political science, a precontention is a situation where one party in a legal or political dispute has not yet made an argument for their side. This can occur when a party is still seeking to establish facts or understanding of the issue at hand, or when they are unsure about what they should say in response to a question or statement from another party. The term "precontention" refers to this situation where there is no formal argument or debate between the parties involved.
