Hello,
My Name is Tal Yaron, and I am autodidacte in the Filed of Deliberation (and many other fields). I have a M.Sc. in biology, and started a Ph.D. in biology. While I was reading the scientific litreture and participated in confrence, I have noitced that I can not see logic in the scientific communication. When I tried to follow the logic from premisis to conclusions, it did not worked out. I have started to learn logic in order to see the logic in the paper but it didn't follow any roles of logic, I have lernt. Therefore I have read Popper's book "The Logic of Scientific Discovery", but again, Popper's logic, was not the one that I found in the litreture. The ridle had puzzled me, so I moved to the program of History and Philosophy of Science in Bar-Ilan university. There I was introduced to the constructivists writings on science, yet their writings did not pleased me. I thought it has critical nature but they can not explain the science I have exprienced it in my years at biology department. Therefore, I have set my self to try to explain science as I have exprienced it. for four years I have devised a model of scientific reason. After four years, and nudges from the head of the program, I have started to show the model to researchers in philosophy. Most of them said in is intresting, but it is to new, but it is too wide, to be a Ph.D. thesis. I couldn't find anyone that will mentor me.So I left the academy to try to develop this model on my own.
After a while, I have engaged Direct Democracy, and found that the deliberation field is critical for the development for the development of a sucsesful direc democracy and participitory democracy, so I have used my model to try to understand how "lay people" reason. Because I was no not restricted by philosophy, I could enter in o my model also knowledge from brain research. After expreincing with real life deliberation, and expreincing wide variety of on-line and off-line deliberation, I have started to adjust the model for deliberation. This time, I have integrated knowledge from the deliberation research filed, in order to be relevent to the experts in deliberation. In 2012, with the help of Dr. Azi Lev-On, we started meetings with experts in the field, and discuuses a vrity of methods of deliberation. This was a boost for my experience, and led me to open this wiki. I hope we can build here theories that will explain the mechanism of deliberation, and will create a ground for developing edvance deliberation methods and on-line tools.
