Dear George, and DD friends

how strange.  Ten years have passed since 2000, at Athens-Delphi, when we started speaking about a Constitution of Direct Democracy, and nothing has changed.

Open your eyes.  That of a DD Constitution is a time-wasting blind alley.  Direct Democracy is not a matter of dropping constitutions and such DD charters top-down.  It is a matter of implementing political practices from grassroots bottom-up, according with the local territory needs and policies: all of which cannot be mummified into the rigidity of an elitarian, necessarily un-democratic, constitutional Act.


Take care,

antonio

Dear  DD  supporters  participating  in CICDD and WDDM,


I am  in San Fransisco  attending the Global  Forum  on  Direct Democracy that  has great sucess and  participation, although  it  mainly limits  Direct Democracy to  Initiative  and  Referendum  issues,  ignoring  the  rest  of  alternative  Institutions  that  may occur  in  a direct  democratic  society , that  we  can  analyze  continuing  this  process in   Athens, Greece ( September 15 – International  Day  of  Democracy- until  September 19, 2010-deadline  for  participations  August  31).

I   wish  TO  INFORM  YOU  THAT  I  am speaking next  Tuesday at 12:30,  participating in a panel discussing about  the  creation  of Constitutions of Direct  DEMOCRACY. 

            I  WOULD  APPRECIATE MUCH  IF YOU COULD  WRITE  ME  any  comments  that  you  would  like  to  be  announced  about contemporary worldwide Direct  Democracy  and  the  chances  that  you  think existing  for  its  implementation  and  for  a  new  hope  for  the  world!.

Best regards 

George L. Kokkas
