Abstract: As I write these words, Tel Aviv has just been bombed (again), the United States stands on the brink of war with Iraq, the United Nations is in a showdown over nuclear weapons with North Korea, and the threat of ter-rorism lurks at the edge of everyday life. Has there ever been a time in history when we so urgently needed better ways to engage with one another? Can we hope that public dialogue might rise up as a primary pathway for addressing the challenging issues we face in this morning of a new and increasingly dark century?
