In recent decades, we have witnessed increasing polarization, divisiveness and hostility in political discourse. This paper outlines a relational-dialectical approach to constructive political discourse. Instead of treating political discourse as competition over clashing positions, the relational approach seeks ways to bridge political differences through  dialectical engagement . The process is organized around three principles: (a) the focus on  needs  and  problems  rather than political  positions , (b)  deep sociality , and (c) the  dialectical construction  of novel forms of thinking through the  integration of opposites . I illustrate these principles in the context of political discourse related to gun violence in the United States.
