## Question

How should communication that proposes a change in another system’s governing policies be distinguished from ordinary information exchange?

## Formulation

Persuasion is extended from a changed answer to a possible change in higher governing commitments. Sequential and parallel representations are considered as potentially different ways to carry simultaneous normative tensions.

## Tension

Adaptability and vulnerability can arise from the same capacity to change through communication.

## Challenge

What observations separate warranted revision, temporary accommodation, and manipulation?
