Hints of evolution in governance. Could be time. How about a slow shift to balancing representative democracy with a more pure, network facilitated democracy? Is there any sort of serious discussion around such an idea? I imagine a new architecture both physical and virtual and a incremental integration that at once preserves the good parts of closed door negotiations and representation in a world of real politics with opportunities for more direct interactivity between the public and seats of power. Might help balance out the economic inequalities in access and influence. How about 1% voice in the House for the pubic's voice! So Democratic Governance 2.0 - a late night session at WeMiami09? Looking forward to it. Fascinating. Hints of evolution in governance. Could be time. How about a slow shift to balancing representative democracy with a more pure, network facilitated democracy?
