Locrian Democracy

[edit]

Locrian Democracy[1] is the creation and subject matter of the short book "The Locrian Manifesto". It is an attempt to modernise current forms of democracy, specifically that of the UK which the author has most experience with.

By limiting the scope of the mandate given to elected representatives, it holds them responsible for their actions and forces them to step down from their role and seek a re-election when they breech their mandate.

The book goes further and establishes the principle of "moral authority" in the context of decision making, where a person without a reasonable understanding of what they are making a decision about lacks the Moral Authority to make the decision, unless they listen and heed the advice of someone who does have the understanding.
