Dialogue of the Deaf: How Deliberation With Discontented Citizens May Hopelessly Fail
Public Administration, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Governments employ public deliberation in response to citizen discontent, intending to achieve consensus, mutual understanding, and clarification. However, some studies suggest that deliberation can devolve into a “dialogue of the deaf,” where parties talk past each other, counterproductively leading to conflict, distrust, and confusion ...
