 Download Hour1 Download Hour2Why elections don't result in popular rule, technocracies and entrenched power, and a look at a system designed to create broad-based voluntary participation in running society, without a state. Have you ever heard of "demarchy"? This word was coined by dissident political theorist, Brian Martin. Most of this week's show is given over to an essay of his. Our second hour concludes with an interview of Jeff Schmidt on his book Disciplined Minds. |
Music: David Rovics
Thanks to the People's Power Hour for the Jeff Schmidt interview
