Present-day advocates of deliberative democracy and others frustrated with the moribund nature of today's forms of (un)democratic political communication may be surprised to learn that a very similar movement arose in American history during the early 20th century out of academic studies of communication. Keith (communication, U. of Wisconsin at Milwaukee) documents how the paradigm of discussion emerged in Deweyan counterpoint to the older paradigm of debate in college speech curricula. He then describes how the ideals of discussion came to be embodied in the proliferation of public forums for civic education in the 1930s and 1930s.
