Abstract
The research addressed the problem of stagnated hate and animosity in conflict by utilizing ICT to influence intergroup intentionality—from enmity and hatred to moderation and reconciliation during conflicts to lead toward social change that would form a path for the reconciliation process. This phenomenology introduced an interdisciplinary methodology that used Internet communication technology applications to engage the disciplines of social psychology, philosophy, politic science, and informatics, as applied in conflict to lead the community for the aspiration to moderation reconciliation and democracy. Having introduced the research project, the figure below serves to build up the theoretical foundations for the research design in researching the phenomenology of ICT in Applied Phronetic Social Science in this communication research (Fig. 2.1).
