Title
Electronically Assisted Dialogues for Urban Planning
Abstract
Previous research describes phases in the design of electronically supported meetings from a temporal perspective. Yet the epistemological status of each phase has not been identified. It is proposed that the pre-meeting phase should be evaluated from a positivist orientation while the meeting itself should be evaluated from an interpretive orientation. Results are reported from a case study in urban planning that provides empirical support for these propositions. Data was gathered during the design and implementation of a strategic evaluation meeting. The goal of this meeting is seen as building consensus via 'rational communication' (Habermas 1987).
