Document Summary
Modesty about our position but ^ Dialogue is not just a process it is of value. A value as a process or a procedure. A key feature - relation to a non-absolute truth. Dialogue is for people who are trying to convince people that their view is right. Peace being the goal of dialogue rather than truth. Adds another dimension to our discussion of peace 2 kinds of tolerance. Minimalist conception (superficial) who am i to say that my view is right tolerate b/c you cant say your view is 100% correct. Deeper conception - they want something more to understand each other. Issue of legitimacy - like peace is a political concept rather than an epistemological truth (nature of knowledge) Legitimacy tied to a view of justification tied to our beliefs of the world. Justified true beliefs ex. the table is made of wood.
