Parties all over the world remain pyramidal
structures with Power-Corruption built-in, as members
compete for higher positions on the organizational ladder.
This Blueprint offers an alternative. Today we possess
sufficient practical knowledge about interpersonal dynamics
that we can use to structure decision-making processes in
ways both humanly decent and politically effective.
Alternatives developed in Applied Behavioral Science can
work for persons who want to become empowered by organizing
without becoming corrupted by power struggle and
Machiavellian practices.
At the very least, this Blueprint contains the strongest
antidotes to Power Corruption that has poisoned the lives of
idealistic and conscientious reformers and revolutionaries
in the past. Political organization that puts power in the
hands of all members at all times rather than in the hands
of top leaders would be a radical departure from all the
unsuccessful earlier attempts to organize.
“The Book will be useful for all those who want to translate
their ideas into action at the same time democratically and effectively,
whatever their cause, from global warming to peace in the Middle East
or gender inequality.”
