Calls for direct democracy have recently become a lot more prevalent around the world in the context of the Arab Spring, Los Indignados and Occupy Wall Street movements. This begs the question, how direct democracy would practically work, not only on a local but also a national and international scope. Popular wisdom seems to be that electronic voting could be the silver bullet that would make this possible. However, not only is it hard to trust electronic voting whenever a secret ballot is…

Welcome to Occupy Cafe, Chris!
Please see the "GET STARTED NOW!" section on the main page for things you can do here right away. The main page also has the schedule of upcoming Cafe Calls and links to register for them in advance.
Perhaps you want to go to the Core Conversations section of the Forum and post something about "subsidiarity" as one suggested focus for our collective inquiry.
You can also use this link to go straight to registration for our "grand opening" later today (Monday) from 11am-2pm Eastern (come at the top of any hour, or for all three!).
Hope to "see you" there!
