Micro Democracy


Book Description

Micro democracy is a scientific, revolutionary and executable total solution to implement true democracy which maximizes social utility and social justice. Theories, system designs, action plans, roadmap are all in this book, for people to build a new world. It originated from the idea of direct democracy, and deeply optimized and reformed with the help of information technology. It achieves a perfect balance between social justice, decision-making efficiency, and quality. On this basis, a complete superstructure is established, including human rights, laws, and government. With it, people will be able to overthrow the existing political system entirely and create a governance platform that enables the self-evolution and peaceful development of civilization. In addition to theoretical analysis, this book also provides actionable implementation plans and roadmaps so that people can immediately begin to practice and create this new political system. Also, the book proposed a general quantitative model for the assessment of the democratic level of states and regimes, helping people to study the political characteristics of various countries objectively.




The Micropolitics of Knowledge


Book Description

For many years Emmanuel Lazega has explored communication behavior and decision-making processes of small workgroups within larger organizations. To account for the knowledge claims of members of those groups, and for the ways in which such claims are legitimated collectively and translated into action, he presents a theory of the interactive elaboration of information on which decisions are based.




Micro-Enterprise and Personalisation


Book Description

Shifts to independent delivery of health and social care services have led to increased numbers of micro-enterprises. Could these tiny organisations with just 5 or fewer employees be the best way of delivering cost-effective health and social care services in the context of decreased budgets and increased demands? What size is 'just right' for a care provider? This book explores size as an independent variable in care services, comparing outcomes and value for money across micro, small, medium and large organisations. Using interviews and surveys with 108 people using services and carers in 27 case-study organisations it focuses on the contribution micro-enterprises can make to the care sector.




Crisis of Authority


Book Description

Contemporary social and political theory has reached an impasse about a problem that had once seemed straightforward: how can individuals make ethical judgments about power and politics? Crisis of Authority analyzes the practices that bind authority, trust and truthfulness in contemporary theory and politics. Drawing on newly available archival materials, Nancy Luxon locates two models for such practices in Sigmund Freud's writings on psychoanalytic technique and Michel Foucault's unpublished lectures on the ancient ethical practices of 'fearless speech', or parrhesia. Luxon argues that the dynamics provoked by the figures of psychoanalyst and truth-teller are central to this process. Her account offers a more supple understanding of the modern ethical subject and new insights into political authority and authorship.
