This book exposes a dozen assumptions that everyone makes about how society has to work - all of which are wrong. These assumptions masquerade as common sense but they aren't sensible. One of them is that all of our institutions need to use representatives to make our rules and embody our goals. Not any longer. Now, with the invention of worldwide instant communication, we can all participate in a true democracy - where everyone participates directly without having to depend on some self-serving representative to hopefully do what he promised. Eliminating representation has been the dream of Anarchists for hundreds of years and now it is possible. This is a plan for how to make an actual revolution, even for a small institution like a union, or a corporation, but certainly for a country, and not just appoint one more president, one more dictator while hoping he will treat you better than the last one. That has been failing because revolutions are usually made without a plan for what follows.
As a result, no one knows what society they really want, so they reestablish a copy of the old society, that they are used to. Revolutions need a plan, and not just a slogan. They need details and programs ready to go. This book provides a comprehensive plan for how to make sure your revolution doesn't just slide back to a poor copy of your last, corrupt form of government. Anyone concerned with the future of social movements needs to read this book to learn how to be smart, not just demanding reform on autopilot.
