This describes part of the purpose of my work. "Democracy," writes the author, "as known in Canada, operates at local, national, and global levels and these levels are mutually supporting by virtue of some basic network principles. Socioactive software and technology is an example of the cointelligence of humanity and a demonstration of our collective strength." I agree with him that we are at the leading edge of a new Renaissance, but also that it will not simply happen on its own, that it must be foistered and nurtured. "Democracy is not what we have. Democracy is what we do." Thanks, Seb, for the link.
