Is the cornerstone of democracy really elections and, consequently, electioneering? |
|
As we start 2008, Australians seems to be talking more positively about our political process. At the same time, we have the extremes of the US Presidential 'road show' and the post election killings in Kenya. In the US, TV personalities vye for favour. In Kenya, tribal henchmen foment bigotry.
Neither situation fosters good government: the raison d'etre of any democracy.
What newDemocracy wishes to explore is a better way, to strengthen our own system against decay..to avoid the pitfalls of adversarial politics.
Here’s our new website with updates, photos (maybe yours too!... see Multimedia) and more…especially the ARC Linkage Grant for the Citizens’ Parliament.
We hope you like it.
