direct participation in direct democracythe way out– in developing democracies
from protests to participation– the way out of all the conflicts, protests to real, full, direct participation People in developing democracies,1 enjoying growing freedom, are looking for ways to more democracy.2 From their representatives they begin to demand to be fully and openly informed, more transparency,3 to be heard, listened to and talked with, more dialogue.4 No more enough is to cast a vote once in an election, and otherwise being kept away from politics. No more enough is the 'valuable asset' of protests, 'the valuable asset of the right to demonstrate',5 often invoked in underdeveloped democracies and keeping people away from politics, outside:
– 'Just go out to the streets, just go out
All the people – 'no one left behind' – must be able to get in
(← what we want),
if we want to get out of all the helpless conflicts, protests'6 to mighty real, full direct participation
(participate! →).
