First problem with this paper. "Facts are facts."
Peacemaking among higher order primates: A paper I wrote some years ago that extends some of the thinking I outlined in Maps of Meaning and later in 12 Rules for Life: http://j.mp/2If1Wm2 pic.twitter.com/taiAleIIS2

That’s kinda the point. If two people disagree the goal to win is out and a new goal should be to find the “facts”.

In my experience, such differences as you describe result not from disagreement upon the objective facts, but upon the value the individual(s) attach to the relevant facts. Homosexuality is a perfect example of such a factual disagreement ...

... many heterosexuals are completely uninterested in homosexuality and related social issues. They don’t assign value to the topic, either positive or negative. To those who value the issue deeply, such ambivalence appears to be hostility.

To be peace maker you need to think beyond any norms to understand outside point of views in order to mediate peace among conflicting participants. That is the best i could in shortening it to one sentence.

Wow, this is brilliant. The other comments prove the essence of the paper, the peacemaker truly is a threat to the local. Seriously, really good thinking here

You seem to be approaching postmodern territory here with your relativisation of facts and first principles. It seems the local antagonists are involved in a struggle over facts and interpretations—a postmodern predicament.

a true student of Derrida "To travel strange lands is to see the broader territory, the no man's land surrounding all conditional moralities, and to learn how to negotiate a path there – but also to lose all belief that there is one way, or one set of facts."
