Description

This lecture delves into the concept of liquid democracy, exploring the tension between direct democracy and representative democracy. The instructor discusses the practicalities and challenges of implementing liquid democracy, such as transitive delegation, accountability, and the risk of accidental concentration of power. Through examples from the German Pirate Party's use of liquid feedback software, the lecture highlights the complexities and potential benefits of liquid democracy in enhancing voter participation and decision-making processes.
