Coles Rational Discourse for Citizenship and Progress: Prepare to Talk Politics at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Too many arguments these days stem from heightened passions due to ascriptions, caricatures, and misunderstandings of political others rather than their actual disposition, rationale, or perspective. It is understandable to vehemently fight against a political opponent who believes that, especially if that is truly dangerous or unjust. But do they really think that? It is imperative to fight for justice in the face of enemies who are unscrupulous. But what makes us so sure they are unscrupulous? We should be spending much more time communicating than reacting and attacking based on visceral responses. This book seeks to prepare citizens by educating us to run our lives and our society so we can "bring out the best in another and not just use our best to beat them up." This book will help with self-understanding as much as understanding others. Included is a training camp to enter Rational Discourse, a method for engaging in Rational Discourse, and tons of advice and techniques to get the most out of every encounter. By practicing the techniques in this book we will find ourselves gaining a wider perspective, more patience, stronger resolve, and clarity of how the world operates. With Rational Discourse, everybody wins.
