participation, cooperation – competent, constructive, direct

labs & cases

– 'unexamined life is not worth living – unlived life is not worth examining' –

 

Looking at life as if it were in various labs, spaces free of any constriction, is a way, one of the ways, to take a distance from 'given' rules, 'unchangeable' conditions. To have a fresh look at things, examine them, compare them with each other and another, let inspirations in, open to everything. One of the playful, creative ways to do things better, develop them for better. Seriously and thoroughly.

Together with all involved and concerned we create a cooperative, constructive net of participation laid over existing conditions, competencies, rules. Spinning a web of direct ways to do specific, concrete things in common together. We did, and do so, with a number of teams in a number of projects, organizations, large or smaller in almost all areas of society. In quite a number of cases.

(as said in 'about') As 'the case among cases' we'd like to have a look at participation in politics.
– Why? The lack of it is a grave problem (a grave 'democratic deficit'↗︎) of underdeveloped democracies, rooted in their hierarchical political systems and social culture, which exclude people or groups, promoting divisions and stratifications in society and thus conflicts, protests, anger and/or frustration, powerlessness, resignation.
– What and how? More developed democracies, inspiring as 'democracy labs', show the way out. The way out from all the helpless conflicts to mighty, powerfull participation. see  · · · in politics  ▲
