50th ABS Annual Conference
Saturday August 8, 2026 3:30pm - 4:45pm EDT
Limited Capacity seats available
As processes of disintegration intensify around the globe, the prospect of peace increasingly resides in the world of fantasy. Dialogue, an instrument capable of fostering connection, harmonising diverse perspectives, and cultivating unity, is reduced to adversarial methods of debate not conducive to building a shared vision and a collective will to act. Integrating psychological studies with social justice literature, this presentation will explore the role of language and meaning-making in contemporary public discourse, examining why conversation no longer appears to generate consensus, and how communication can be reimagined to recover the transformative, unifying potential of dialogue.
