Existing elicitation techniques used in AI adopt a purely cognitive stance, in that they model a single problem-cognitive stance, and ignore the social and organizational context. A framework for representing alternative, conflicting viewpoints in a single domain model is described. The framework is based on the development of a hierarchy of viewpoint descriptions, where lower levels of the hierarchy contain the conflicts. The hierarchies can be viewed in a number of ways, and allow the participants to develop an understanding of each other's perspective. The framework is supported by a set of tools for developing and manipulating these hierarchies
