The de Borda Institute, Ireland:Peter Emerson, The Punters'Guide to Democracy(forthcoming)

 

 

This book discusses multiple ways of voting in a democratic system and explains the basis of more consensual politics. Without delving into too much technical argument or too many mathematical examples, it aims to:

• show that binary decision-making is blunt, primitive, divisive, and sometimes inaccurate;

• prove that other methodologies are more accurate and, therefore, more democratic;

• highlight more inclusive and effective voting procedures;

• discuss electoral reforms for national parliaments and international forums like the UN Security Council and COP26/27.
