(May I post this draft for the record? And for comment, if anyone is interested?)
I describe a medium in which agreements arising from discussion can build incrementally to include large numbers of people. I suggest that the medium might enable the institution of communicative action at societal scales. Consensus of the population might then decide such questions as the allocation of state power and the promulgation of norms. (I'll post each section separately, as I finish drafting it.) -- Michael Allan Toronto, 647-436-4521 http://zelea.com/ ---- Election-Methods mailing list - see http://electorama.com/em for list info
