dialogical
Involving mutual exchange
Dialogical describes something characterized by dialogue or conversation between two or more voices or perspectives.
The term appears in philosophy, literary theory, and education to emphasize exchange over monologue: a dialogical approach to teaching, dialogical reasoning.
Where monological thinking proceeds from a single viewpoint, dialogical thinking engages multiple perspectives in genuine interaction.
