The authors make the distinction within deliberation between equity and equality, and confront what this means to fairness and participants being able to fully engage in deliberation. The article examines different approaches to inclusion within deliberative theory and practice, as well as, the authors address some challenges and opportunities.

In the article, Schoem discusses the relationships that many dialogue and deliberation organizations have toward social justice. Many D&#38;D organizations have a tendency to shy away from social justice in an effort to maintain neutrality. Schoem puts forth three arguments that &#8220;the field needs to 1) work intentionally for social justice and serving the [&#8230;] <a href="http://ncdd.org/rc/item/11381">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

The manual gives a holistic framework&#160;to address historical injustices, in a way that engages all participants, and identifies the aftermath and legacies of [generational] trauma. This manual was developed by Coming to the Table and has been a collective effort of Eastern Mennonite University&#8217;s (EMU)&#160;Center for Justice &#38; Peacebuilding (CJP) and&#160;their Strategies for Trauma Awareness and Resilience (STAR) program.

In the article, Parsa discusses the need to not be a neutral party within this society because it furthers the injustices of this world. Instead she offers the alternative of multi-partiality, to not remain neutral and both hold one&#8217;s own opinion while also being able to hold alternatives perspectives, even if they differ dramatically.
