In this talk, I pursue three aims: 1. to give an overview of models of social belief dynamics which may inform the norms of public deliberation; 2. to explore, by using a computational model, the linkage between argument-induced consensus and polarization; 3. to argue that we ought to re-consider the role of consensus and the function of deliberation in democratic policy-making.
