Dialogic Design Science

Dialogic Design Science (DDS) is the theoretical foundation of the Structured Dialogic Design Process Methodology.

The ultimate objective of this People's Science is to support people from all walks of life for practicing authentic participative democracy by applying the Co-Laboratories of Democracy approach in designing or re-designing their social systems.

The Domain of Science Model (DOSM), proposed by Professor John N. Warfield in 1987, is being employed as the contextual typology for assigning the component artifacts of the DDS in the four distinct domains of the DOSM, namely:

Foundation

Grounded on six Foundational Axioms of Dialogic Design Science, seven Laws of Dialogic Design Science and Key Definitions used in Dialogic Design Science.

Theory

The theory comprises primarily of understanding the Laws of Dialogic Design Science, the roles of various actors, and certain key scientific process and phenomena including the Interpretive Structural Modeling algorithm, Erroneous Priorities Effect, Spreadthink, Situational Complexity, Theory of Change, etc.

Methodology

The Structured Democratic Dialogue Process is grounded on the theory and expects Facilitators to fully comply with all requirements imposed by Dialogic Design Science.

Applications

This is a comprehensive list of all Co-Laboratories organized by Future Worlds Center.
