A forum I frequent has been having a discussion of how one would describe the political system of the United Federation of Planets. It seems to me to combine traits of two systems I generally don't think of as compatible, that is almost a sort of democratic communism. I'd be interested in seeing what other people thought, especially since I think most of the folks here are more politically and SF-ally savvy than this other group.
