Is the U.S. form of Democracy – representative, with a Two Party system – the highest democratic form? Few countries are now emulating it, and many are developing more participatory systems. Bill Resnick interviews Eleanor Finley, an anthropologist, who is researching cities that have moved in the direction of Libertarian Municipalism to formulate public policy. Libertarian Municipalism consists of many interlinked and confederated societies that operate by means of direct, face-to-face assemblies of the people, based on an ethics of ecological sustainability and human solidarity. Not all news is bad.
