Based on a post by Heiner Benking to OHS-DEV, I discovered a paper at
http://www.uia.org/uiadocs/dialqual.htm
Enhancing the Quality of Email Dialog using Artificial Intelligence.
I found that paper (it's the top listing) at
http://www.uia.org/uiadocs/aadocdia.htm which is a listing of papers and
reports on dialog and community.
That URL came from the paper Dialog Culture which was found at
http://www.ceptualinstitute.com/genre/benking/dialogue-culture.htm, the
first paragraph of which is:
"When looking at Dialogue and David Bohm's work that discusses going beyond
assumptions, isolation and interest, and towards an open sharing of ideas,
we learn that people increasingly get together only to present their own
ideas and to defend their views or projects. Bohm was very aware of the
need -- even in open and free (no format) meetings -- to find procedures or
principles that will literally give people the "space" to talk and
especially to overcome ingrained habits and convictions which tend to bias
and hamper speakers (for more see: On Dialogue p 30). He was very aware of
how 'talkers' use words, protecting themselves by building walls of words
therefore mis-intentionally hindering the free flow of ideas that could
otherwise reinforce and encourage a participatory mode and mood. "
It appears that one could spend several weeks motoring around in the space
opened by Benking while comparing and contrasting all that to Jeff
Conklin's IBIS papers.
Cheers
