An Agenda for Communication Studies: A Dialogical Reading of
The Twilight of Common Dreams

Abstract

The main purpose of this paper is to raise a point for discussion of communication studies by critically reading Todd Gitlin’s argument, that is, the claim that we should build a common ground so that we can solve the dangerous situation called “cultural wars.” We assume that the common ground Gitlin proposes is not only a space where we can pursue the ideal of a calm discussion between conflicting parties, but also a place in which we can nullify the claims of both sides enslaved by a dichotomic way of thinking. The first process of discussion is that we attempt to reveal the relationships between the Enlightenment and a monologic principle, referring to Horkheimer & Adorno and Mikhail Bakhtin. The second step is whether we can explore the possibilities of seeing a monologic concept as a matter of communication, posing an agenda for communication studies.

Keywords : communication studies, multiculturalism, Enlightenment, dialogism
