Argument mapping, "the best argumented position is always on top"; re-creates the public sphere

Visit AGORA-net website.

Hosted by Georgia Tech, with Michael Hoffman as leader.

"Instead of the linear structure of the usual discussion–where “on top” is always the one who had the last word, but not necessarily the best justified position–AGORA-net is result-oriented: The best defended position is always on top. Instead of flooding participatory processes with millions of entries that are often repetitive and too simplistic, AGORA provides a self-organizing structure that challenges the user community to deepen their understanding of issues, to listen to others, to change habitualized reasoning processes, and to strengthen positions that can then–together with their supporting argumentations–inform real policy making.
