Solving For Democracy Tony Bracks

"This is a timely and fascinating account of not only what has gone wrong with our political systems - but how to fix them!" - Professor Ron Bewley

Transforming democracy by removing each and every cause of problems, then reconstructing the process with known, working solutions

This book begins by outlining the many consequences of our poor democratic process. In spite of its success, the flaws in our democratic decision making have led to tens of millions of unnecessary deaths in the last 50 years alone. Each and every year our poor democratic process squanders many trillions of dollars, which could otherwise be spent for the benefit of all.

A compelling case for change is presented. The underlying problems within our democratic process are then identified and tried and tested solutions are proposed.

Building on the expertise of scholars, this book critically analyses western democracies to find and address the root causes of problems. The poor implementation choices that lead to those issues are removed and replaced with sensible and effective solutions. At the same time, democracy itself is strengthened through a true separation of powers and the core qualities that have driven democracy's success are reinforced. A more effective collective decision-making process is created, which better governs our leadership, and better represents the will of the people.

The book creates a democracy which removes any potential for either politics, corruption, self-interested politicians or the adverse influence of money. One which gives power back to the people within an effective governance framework to control that power. A democracy reconstructed from tried and tested solutions, which can produce better leadership and better decisions, for a fairer society.

What arises is a democracy designed from the ground up to be, of the people, by the people and for the people.
