The End of Politicians
English
By (author): Brett Hennig
Our politics is broken, but it can be fixed.
A real democracy is not only possible it is an urgent necessity.
Provocative, succinct and inspiring, The End of Politicians combines insights from the history of democracy with a critical understanding of the information revolution to explain how we can fix democracy by eliminating politicians and replacing them with a representative network of everyday citizens.
A wealth of recent evidence has shown that groups of randomly selected, ordinary people can and do make balanced, informed and trusted decisions. These citizens' assemblies are legitimate, accountable, competent and, above all, convincing demonstrations that we can govern ourselves.
The future of democracy has arrived. It is time for the end of politicians.
