Dialogue + Deliberation Communication theory Dialogue Deliberation

Society as a web of communication patterns Different patterns of communication create different contexts. Communication is not only instrumental, but also consequential: Importance of what gets done (results, outputs) but also what gets made (relationships, contexts) and how it gets made (through what communication patterns; with what consequences)

common rituals + pitfalls Communication patterns: common rituals + pitfalls Exchanging monologues Pre-packaged arguments Dominant voices Posturing Specialised jargon Avoidance Polarisation and oversimplifaction Confrontational exchanges 8

Dialogue A form of non-polarised conversation that focuses on understanding and relationship-building Creation of safe spaces Suspension of assumptions and automatic response (assimilation/opposition) Finding common ground / exploring differences Co-creation of shared meanings and vocabularies Collaborative inquiry Storytelling Understanding the contribution of emotions

Deliberation Information, evidence, stories Making informed and reasoned decisions Seeking agreement or consensus Re-examining and (perhaps) changing preferences Giving (and taking) public reasons Mapping and scrutinising alternatives Information, evidence, stories

Debate Dialogue Deliberation Seeks to promote opinions and gain majority support Seeks to build understanding and relationships Seeks common ground in order to solve problems Participants argue, express, persuade and compete Participants listen, exchange, reach across, reflect Participants frame and weigh options, and make choices Outcome: win/lose Outcome: no decision Outcome: win/win

The craft of facilitation

Role of facilitators To help the group meet its aims as fully as possible in the time available (keeping on task) To encourage the fullest possible participation of the group (inclusiveness) To maintain an impartial stance on the topic under discussion (impartiality) Service the needs of each individual AND the group (care) Welcome conflict but not confrontation (managing difference) Monitor (and sometimes alter) communication patterns (managing dynamics)

Two different styles of facilitation Dialogue Deliberation Divergent communications patterns Convergent communication patterns Inviting exploration and understanding (no judgement) Inviting scrutiny and judgement Broadening or deepening stories/experiences Sharpening / testing arguments Centrality of experience Centrality of evidence (which may include experience) Ethics of care Ethics of justification Space for private and public reasons Space for public reasons only No pressure to reach conclusion / decision Pressure to reach conclusion / decision
