Eg in Iterative Design Cycle / RequirementsAnalysis
Context of PostModern Theory
We have different cultural languages , cannot assume common agreement (Hegemony/Ideology)
Options?
Inclusive Listening, (While maintaining awareness of /retaining access to own position)
Empathy
Metaphor - Cultural Boundaries are like doors often as dualistic though can create projection of 'other'
Eg Corporate culture may see Value in prototype App (RandomResearchCo) re Lateral Thinking/Reminders (as a ray of light above the door) for its own functional reasons,
But its definite of 'Noise" may be a lot less self-organising, its cultural may be much more segmented ,hence some of the creative collectivity needs to be removed from the 'Branding' of the Creative Source..
(Does not want to look behind door - projects the other extreme caricature (e.g. 'anarchy'<>'nazi').
e.g. This is arguably a product and couse of instrumentality..
How relate to Systems Movement and Tools,
re Boundaries and Feedback...?
Soft Systems tools are Meta Tools?
concerned with a top down view (hence dismissed by poststructural/postmodern as hegemonic)
However they are attempting (as is discourse analysis) to enable communication between cultures
internal and external by generating a generating an inclusive discussion around 1 perceived boundaries and 2 feedback ( e.g. see Checkland re Iterative methods)
IS such a focus hegemonic? ( it tries to use apolitical language so all the parties can come to the table)
Does Discourse Analysis choose another focus
eg flows, language analysis, social analysis (Ideological) etc...
Its more overtly political in language...
Can the two methodologies learn off each other...?
IS Soft systems analysis method s like SSM adequate is it democratic ( See discussion Systems thinking systems practice re Habermas)
