The Internet is an incredible tool for democratization. We have been working exhaustively for years around the tools, methodologies and problems of net democracy, and about what the Internet teaches us on new forms of political self-organization, based on pragmatism, to defend justice and to effectively develop democracy in the analogical world.
The big social consensus has changed, political discourse has changed, even the faces are changing; but we consider it is not about changing the promises or preach fake occupational participation, it is necessary to work in on the “specifics” and the “hows” to create the real necessary participarion and control mechanisms for the citizens to achive a 21st century democracy, effective and taking responsibility, in order to change things and have that change translate into common welfare.
We have based on the world most advanced experiences and prototypes in the use of the Net to lay the foundations of democracy in the digital era: transparency in public administration, journalism, freedom of information, prototypes of collaborative governance and radical networked democracy for a more open and collaborative control by citizens over their governments. A control which would give everyday people a more direct and effective method of participation resulting in more efficient governance.
