The quality of public conversation is a subject of continuing concern in Australia as in the US. This study of the history of public conversation in the US will offer a longer historical perspective on current political and social concerns about declining social capital and civility in public discourse. Americans have always sought more and better public discussion, but for quite different reasons at different times. The research will illuminate the very rich history of public conversation in the US and shed some comparative light on Australian conditions.

与美国一样，澳大利亚公众对话的质量也是一个持续关注的问题。这项对美国公共对话历史的研究将为当前政治和社会对公共话语中社会资本和文明下降的担忧提供一个更长的历史视角。美国人一直在寻求更多更好的公共讨论，但在不同的时间出于完全不同的原因。这项研究将阐明美国公共对话的丰富历史，并对澳大利亚的情况进行比较。
