Quotes

"Dialogue is mutual search for a new reality, not debate to win with stronger arguments. In a dialogue propositions are pointers toward a common new reality; not against each other to win a verbal battle, but complementing each other in an effort to accommodate legitimate goals of all parties, inspired by theories and values, and constructive-creative-concrete enough to become a causa finalis". Galtuung


"I use the concept of affect as away of talking about a margin of manouverability, the 'where we might be able to go' and 'what we might be able to do' in every present situation. I guess 'affect' is a word I use for 'hope': Massumi


"A discourse is a system of words, actions, rules, beliefs, and institutions that share common values. Particular discourses sustain particular worldviews. We might even think of a discourse as a worldview in action. Discourses tend to be invisible--taken for granted as part of the fabric of reality."Fairclough


Emergence is “the principle that entities exhibit properties which are meaningful only when attributed to the whole, not to its parts.” Checkland


"What the designer cares about is whether the user perceives that some action is possible (or in the case of perceived non-affordances, not possible)." Norman

PIRC -Values and Frames- Advertising

"Conclusion 

This is an ambitious set of proposals. It is a contribution 
to the start, not the culmination, of a debate. Undoubtedly, more work 
is needed in thinking through the detail of these proposals, and in 
developing further responses. 
All those concerned about social and environmental challenges—whether 
they work in business, government or the third sector—can find common 
cause in contributing to this work. Yet responsibility for developing this 
debate further must fall particularly upon the third sector. It seems 
unsustainable for civil society organisations—almost irrespective of the 
issues upon which they focus—to continue to largely disregard the 
cultural impacts of advertising. "
