[Ailist] First Transpartisan National Convention, Denver, Feb 11 - 15, 2009

[Stephanie West Allen]

 From the organization's Web site:

Transpartisanship acknowledges the validity of truths across a range  
of political perspectives and seeks to synthesize them into an  
inclusive, pragmatic whole beyond typical political dualities. In  
practice, transpartisan solutions emerge out of a new kind of public  
conversation that moves beyond polarization by applying proven  
methods of facilitated dialogue, deliberation and conflict  
resolution. In this way it is possible to achieve the ideal of a  
democratic republic by integrating the values of a democracy --  
freedom, equality, and a regard for the common good, with the values  
of a republic -- order, responsibility and security.
