Toward a vocabulary of transformative dialogue

摘要: Most of us feel more comfortable in certain groups than others, and indeed find people just plain wrong headed or evil perhaps neo-Nazis, the KKK, Mafia, terrorist groups. This sense alterity distance separation from particular others is virtually an inevitable outcome social life. As we come to generate realities moralities within specific families, friendships, workplace, religious setting so do our interlocutors become invaluable resources. With their support either explicit implicit gain who are, what real, right. At same time, all world constructions associated forms relational life create a devalued exterior realm that not us, believe, true, good. In important degree this devaluation derives structure language out which construct realities. Language essentially differentiating medium, with every word separating named indicated (absent, contrary). Thus, whenever declare case good, use words privilege existents while thrusting absent contrary margins. An emphasis on material basis reality suppresses devalues spiritual; as observed subtlety undermines beliefs unseen intuitive, on. effect, for there alterity. These proposals are congenial view socially constructed (see Gergen, 1994).
