SmithLanham, Md. Lexington Booksc20111 online resource (198 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-7391-4610-6 1-299-61999-1 Includes bibliographical references and index.The deliberative impulse -- In defense of abiding by conscience -- Catalysts of conflict and the facilitation of deliberation -- Liberty of conscience and discursive control : on the moral incentive to deliberate publicly -- Doubt, insistence, and validation : on the epistemic incentives to deliberate publicly -- Commitment, criticism, and restraint : on a religious incentive to deliberate publicly.Andrew F. Smith argues that citizens of divided societies have three powerful incentives to engage in public deliberation_in free, open, and reasoned dialogue aimed at contributing to the establishment of well-developed laws. When contesting for political influence, or pursuing the enshrinement of one's convictions in law, deliberating publicly is a necessary condition for taking oneself to be a responsible moral, epistemic, and religious agent.Deliberative democracyDeliberative democracy.321.8Smith Andrew F.1972-910425MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910960863203321The deliberative impulse4334947UNINA
