Purpose

This topic page lists all prediction questions regarding the likely future of an improved system of government, a broadband democracy. We want specialised committees of citizens - statistically exactly representative groups - to decide on policies and to control public enterprises. Here is a working draft of the new system's rules: The New Demarchy Manifesto.

Discussion requirement

Potential future indicators of a New Demarchy organisation's success could be the following:

1. Number of members
2. Policy decisions demonstrably influenced by such a citizens' committee (a.k.a. successful field test)
3. Predictive error (compared to professional politicians' claims)

Further discussion is needed for the following potential indicators:

1. Number of political issues under demarchic radar (i.e. on the prediction platform)
2. Citations in scientific papers
3. Mentions in news media
4. Annual budget available to the organisation
5. ...

The expected magnitude of these indicators which warrant a foundation is subject to discussion on the "Messages" tab.
