dc.description.abstractIn this collection, we’ve gathered articles that present a wide range of approaches to considering the value of dialogue. The articles also present diverse views on how dialogue fits into the social, political, and economic fabric of each of the societies and what roles it has played at different stages of the conflict. Some of our contributors present views that highlight the important aspects of Ossetian narratives and social-political discourse, other authors highlight Georgian views and motivations around the value of dialogue. We also bring outside voices of experts, practitioners, and scholars who, although outsiders to the region, have been engaged in the region for a long time and bring their professional lens to the assessment of the value of dialogue.
