The Rules of Democracy

About this book

The world can be better run. Democracy is the most effective way to take back control over decisions that impact people's lives. But democracy must evolve following a global technological revolution that has increased fears that global trade and immigration threaten our identity, that we face environmental ruin and that cybercriminals and 'big tech' can do as they please, unchecked – all made worse by COVID-19.

This book presents a roadmap for more accountable democracy locally, nationally and internationally. Marcial Bragadini Bóo proposes updating rules so that politicians are better held to account, public services improve and people can contribute to their communities. New rules of democracy may help find solutions to global problems and ensure everyone is fairly represented at the decision-making table.
