Many rank-and-file social scientists still associate this school of thought with Habermasian communicative action\/deliberative action frameworks. This collection recalls those origins even as it shows how far the argumentative turn has progressed beyond them. It should be used far and wide.\"—\u003cb\u003eTimothy Luke\u003c\/b\u003e, Director, Center for Digital Discourse and Culture, Virginia Tech\u003cbr\u003e\"The argumentative turn in policy analysis has taken another major turn for the better.
