?Holt (communication, Northern Illinois U.) analyzes civic
discourse on the Internet from the perspective of "dialogism,"
which sees meaning as established by the struggle of
representations conducted between that write, read, and represent
written messages. He explains the development of "dialogism" from
the standpoints of five intellectual traditions (Vico, pragmatism,
phenomenology, Vygotsky, and Bakhtin) and contrasts it with
"monological" perspectives.?-Reference & Research Book News
