i'm not sure that i wouldn't put discussion outside of the category of coercion. depends on the situation.
the line between persuasion and coercion is a lot murkier than it seems to be, once one starts questioning things like why some people's skill sets are more highly valued than others (talking over fist fighting, for example). i have seen plenty of verbal arguments finished where one person was just more stubborn than the other, not that either had been convinced (or convincing)...
to me, as a working premise, domination is a question of scale and reification. if one person always argues circles around me and i don't want to or can't beat them up, then i will just try to avoid them, or have someone else deal with them. if i cannot do that because there is a whole apparatus in place (like the police, to be simplistic), then i think that can be called domination, especially if the apparatus is always composed of the same people, or the same kind of people (whatever "kind" might mean in a given situation).
edit: to be clearer - i think 10 hour meetings are absolutely coercive. you have to continue talking to people in a specific format (meeting procedures) in order to make decisions that impact your life? or risk having things come up that effect you without having any input? HEL no.
