Fallacy of inappropriate authority

  • The fallacy of unsuitable authority is a type of informal fallacy or persuasive tactic where it is assumed that the judgments of a person who is regarded as an authority in one field should be taken into consideration in another.
  • For instance, Mr. X, a successful businessman, need to understand how to handle budget deficits. Known also as the expert fallacy.
  • Here, it is not necessary that because Theodore is a well known historian, he might also be good at books of logic.
  • It is nowhere mentioned or known that well known historians are good at suggesting a logic book. It is the best book in his personal opinion only.

Hence, it is a type of fallacy of inappropriate authority.
