This is a study that explores the notion of direct, participative and processual democracy. The research presents a series of abstract structures, providing a framework for bringing together egalitarian values, collaborative perspectives and edifying voices in an equal and open decision-making process.
It includes a basic taxonomy of social, economic and political concepts relevant to the creation of a perfect society, showing the direction of dependencies, feedback interactions, and the relative significance of qualities and activities.
In the flow of political discourse it is sometime easy to forget the foundations of a virtuous society, though we do remain aware of the mistakes and the civic achievements of secular ideologies, religions and governments.
Today, we possess sufficient cultural, economic and technological resources to introduce a better global society; one instructed by shared wisdom flowing freely through networked media, in a system previously considered impossible. A collective destiny can be shaped using the power of networked activity, allowing citizens to communicate, share, educate and legislate.
