Abstract

The advantages of the dialogue form—in particular, the advantage of openness—have been neglected in post-eighteenth-century philosophy. Unlike the currently dominant journal article form, the present dialogue neither arrives at, nor seeks to impose, a definite conclusion. Debate is left open. Knowledge in philosophy is dialogical. As love of wisdom, philosophy pursues truth via challenging dialogue, knowing that it needs opposing views to approach its aim. That aim is to arrive at truth, and the most fruitful debate can help one get there.
