Description

This paper examines the possibility of online-based deliberative forums using video-chat technology such as Skype or Facetime. Deliberative forums using face-to-face communication have some problems, which need too much money and time. These problems prevent these forums from being in widespread use. Then online-based deliberative forums can make them easier to organize and consequently increase the amount of them. These merits lead deliberative forums to be more relative and reflexive, because by making them easier, it become possible that much kind of organizers who have a variety of positions can reconfirm through deliberative forum itself whether the deliberative forum was distorted or not, therefore the richness of amount prepares possibilities required to reflect deliberative forums by themselves.
