Next Generation Democracy

Tip O'Neil's famous maxim that "all politics is local," is as true today as ever. However the methods and techniques of that local political process are entirely different. To take on 21st Century global challenges like climate change, financial markets, housing, health care, banking and so many others, it's going to take a new kind of politics. One, global in thinking, but organized around the open source ideas that are impacting every aspect of our society. Jared Duval, in his book Next Generation Democracy: What the Open-Source Revolution Means for Power, Politics, and Change, lies at the cutting edge of politics, democracy and technology.
