This article, titled ‘Defining Discourse Down’ does a pretty nice job of summing up why serious conversations are so difficult in this day and age (he blames it on an excess of both jerkiness and niceness). He has some sound advice at the end too.

Associate Vice Provost and Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Utah State University. I teach across the curriculum, but am most interested in continental philosophy, ancient and medieval philosophy as well as Catholic thought, all of which might be summed up as an interest in the ressourcement tradition (returning in order to make progress). I also enjoy spending time thinking about liberal education and its ends.
