The key thesis here is that public governance systems can benefit from participation; informed organizational arrangements informed by circular design. A case study conducted at a Dutch consent; circular design municipality illustrates how principles of circular design served to enhance the city council’s role of orchestrator of civil participation. This case also illustrates how a local democracy, which has long suffered from majority–minority ploys and voting schemes, can be transformed into a consent-based culture of collaboration.

  • What Is Dynamic Governance?
    What is Dynamic Governance? By Becky Bowen J.D. I attended a workshop on Dynamic Governance recently. While the concepts were not entirely unfamiliar to me, it wasn’t until I used them at a recent group facilitation that I noticed how big a difference they made in both the energy level and the satisfaction of the individual group members. What is Dynamic Governance? To answer that question, we need to take a look at what governance is. More than just the process of decision-making, governance is also the system by which decision-makers are determined and decisions are implemented. Back in high school we learned about our nation’s Constitution and the Bill of Rights that amended it. With all the political bickering that occurs over what is and is not a “constitutional right,” we sometimes forget that the Constitution is also the document by which our government was formed. It provides the structure for the three branches of government and the checks and balances system that has made for a pretty good system of law-making, law-enforcement, and law-interpretation. It also describes the system by which our Senators, Congressmen, President, Vice-President, and Supreme Court Justices take office. It isn’t so specific as to describe congressional rule-making procedure, but most of us are familiar enough with the voting process to know that in most cases, majority rules, and in some cases, a super-majority vote is required. How we run our town councils, non-profit boards, and other governance structures pretty much mirrors the government system just described.

  • Governance in Decentralized Networks
    Governance in decentralized networks Risto Karjalainen* May 21, 2020 Abstract. Effective, legitimate and transparent governance is paramount for the long-term viability of decentralized networks. If the aim is to design such a governance model, it is useful to be aware of the history of decision making paradigms and the relevant previous research. Towards such ends, this paper is a survey of different governance models, the thinking behind such models, and new tools and structures which are made possible by decentralized blockchain technology. Governance mechanisms in the wider civil society are reviewed, including structures and processes in private and non-profit governance, open-source development, and self-managed organisations. The alternative ways to aggregate preferences, resolve conflicts, and manage resources in the decentralized space are explored, including the possibility of encoding governance rules as automatically executed computer programs where humans or other entities interact via a protocol. Keywords: Blockchain technology, decentralization, decentralized autonomous organizations, distributed ledger technology, governance, peer-to-peer networks, smart contracts. 1. Introduction This paper is a survey of governance models in decentralized networks, and specifically in networks which make use of blockchain technology. There are good reasons why governance in decentralized networks is a topic of considerable interest at present. Some of these reasons are ideological. We live in an era where detailed information about private individuals is being collected and traded, in many cases without the knowledge or consent of the individuals involved. Decentralized technology is seen as a tool which can help protect people against invasions of privacy. Decentralization can also be viewed as a reaction against the overreach by state and industry.

  • Letter to Amherst Charter Commission Requested by Gerry Weiss from Joshua Hornick, Amherst MA Martin Luther King, Jr Day 2017
    Letter to Amherst Charter Commission requested by Gerry Weiss From Joshua Hornick, Amherst MA Martin Luther King, Jr Day 2017 Dear Commissioners, This is exciting! On January 5, I shared an academic article with the Charter Commission, entitled “From Competition and Collusion to Consent-Based Collaboration: A Case Study of Local Democracy”, from The International Journal of Public Administration. The article is about the implementation by a town in Holland of new participatory governance techniques. I hoped this might inform and inspire the Charter Commission. Three days later, I ran into Meg Gage at a mutual friend’s house where we discussed it a bit. Two days after that, I heard back from Gerry Weiss asking if I could summarize the important points. I told him that I would. Two days later, I heard back from Andrew Churchill who had excerpted a few points from the article that seemed especially useful to him. Thanks to all of you for taking on this important work and for being so responsive to what I hope you find as exciting as I do. To understand this letter, it is important to have a big-picture, socio-psychological-historical perspective. Amherst has the opportunity, I believe, to become the cutting edge for creating a better world. And, I think that we are just smart and gutsy enough to do it. While the details are beyond me, I will summarize the rationale and the contours for a government based on sociocratic principles. I appreciate your giving them consideration. Democracy was a big step up from monarchy and other forms of totalitarian rule.

  • Governance by Design - Sociocracy Values, Principles, Definitions and Resources John Schinnerer – [email protected]
    Governance By Design - Sociocracy Values, principles, definitions and resources John Schinnerer – [email protected] Values • Equivalence – individuals function as peers in deciding how to accomplish their collective aims • Effectiveness – designing for action; continuous development for efficiency; process design • Transparency – direct access to all policy documents and records relating to one's work. ◦ Supports equivalence, effectiveness and responsibilities of co-leadership. Principles • Consent ◦ Consent governs decision-making. Consent means there are no argued and paramount objections to a proposed policy decision (a proposal for a policy). ▪ “Argued” means reasoned or explained. “Paramount” means all-important. ▪ An objection is not a veto or block; it is a valid reason why a particular decision will prevent a member of the group from doing their job or otherwise supporting circle aims. ▪ Objections are solicited because they provide useful and positive information (feedback) for designing a better decision. Reasons given for objections are used to improve a proposal so that all members of the group can work toward their aim more effectively. • Circles ◦ A circle is a semi-autonomous and self-organizing unit that has its own domain and aim. It makes policy decisions within its domain; delegates leading, doing and measuring functions to its own members; maintains its own memory system; plans its own development (learning, adapting). ▪ Circles essentially correspond to organizational working groups, such as departments, divisions, teams, task forces, etc.. Each circle has its own aim and steers its own work by performing functions of leading, doing, and measuring on its own operations. Together the three steering functions establish a feedback loop, making the circle self-correcting, or self-regulating.

Tibidabo, 47, Barcelona (Spain) mediaccions.net c Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas (CONICET), (Argentina) conicet.gov.ar Keywords: self-determination, citizen governance, reputation, Blockchain, Sociocracy 3.0. Abstract This work introduces a novel technopolitical artifact that opens up the possibility for a system of non-dominant citizen governance that eliminates the representative layer and puts citizens at the top of the decision making process. A socio-political approach that arises by merging two disrupting technologies: Sociocracy 3.0 as an organizational technology for efficiently governing large, self- determinant organizations; and Blockchain as a digital reputation technology for overcoming the limitations preventing standalone Sociocracy 3.0 of being used in organizations governing the public domain. 1. Introduction Recent years has observed an increase in the distrust of the citizenship in public institutions and the traditional governance systems (Castells, 2017). It is our understanding that the main reason of this distrust is that, despite all the improvements achieved since the advent of democracy, it is still holding representation and voting as decision making mechanisms, resulting in a partially dominant system where large portions of the populations feels that many of their needs are excluded by the democratic decisions.
