Bakhtin's notion of dialogism as applied to architecture and urbanism.
The semiotic nature of language, being dialogic in its true sense, constantly recalls a collaborative engagement between language (which contains signs that are confirmed and conventionalized by the system through their internal functioning dialogism and a community of speakers) and that which has the potential capability and dynamism to produce new signs that may be identified as discourse.
Yet, evoking Mikhail Bakhtin's dialogism, Ratcliffe and Piette adapt a stance which sees all texts as marked by fruitful contradictions.
