Emergent democracy

Emergent democracy is a new way of thinking about the way a group of people can make decisions together. Instead of just one person — like a king or president — making the rules and decisions, emergent democracy is when everyone in the group has a say in the decisions. This might mean that everyone discusses their ideas and then votes on them, or it could mean that everyone works together to find a solution everyone can agree on. Emergent democracy is a way of making sure everyone's voice is heard and that decisions are made in the best interest of the group and all its members.
