Neosocratic Dialogue
Introduction
The Neosocratic dialogue[1] is an instrument for involving ordinary citizens in discussions on ethical-philosophical questions on a very general and basic level. Assumptions, reasons and points of view are “held up to the light”, and the course the discussion takes is documented. Neo-socratic methods are recommended for the clarification of controversial questions; for developing a common understanding of basic terms and approaches, for discussing basic topics such as principles, values and attitudes.[2]
