From the local level to international politics, deliberation helps
to increase mutual understanding and trust, in order to arrive at
political decisions of high epistemic value and legitimacy. This
book gives deliberation a dynamic dimension, analysing how levels
of deliberation rise and fall in group discussions, and introducing
the concept of 'deliberative transformative moments' and how they
can be applied to deeply divided societies, where deliberation is
most needed but also most difficult to work. Discussions between
ex-guerrillas and ex-paramilitaries in Colombia, Serbs and Bosnjaks
in Bosnia-Herzegovina, and police officers and locals in Brazilian
favelas are used as case studies, with participants addressing how
peace can be attained in their countries. Allowing access to the
records and transcripts of the discussions opens an opportunity for
practitioners of conflict resolution to apply this research to
their work in trouble spots of the world, creating a link between
the theory and practice of deliberation.
