Title: A Constitution of direct democracy
Description: **A Constitution of Direct Democracy:** The book describes the reasons for a fully democratic government, based directly on the public will; the Constitution of a such a system of government; and how this can be achieved smoothly from existing systems through Direct Representative; and the campaign history and materials from the first American Direct Representative campaign. 
**Basic Principles:** All people share the needs of survival, and of dignity, justice and freedom. These shared values forge the common will, which can therefore best guide our future. This common will is implemented by Direct Democracy, based on the shared drive for survival, and on the decency, goodness and common sense of most people.  These common values, reflected through direct democracy, can best secure our human future. 
**Public Government:**  In the model Constitution, society is governed entirely public polls and referendums, from local communities to nations and to the global community. Several "case histories" illustrate public decisions on moral issues, economics and international policy. In the critical times to come, the communal wisdom, expressed by Direct Democracy through this model system, is our best guide to a secure future.
**The Constitution:** Major policies are set by public referendums and polls, preceded by fair balanced public debates. Policies are executed by Expert Agencies, guided by public Policy Juries and elected Public Ombudsmen; disputes are resolved by elected Expert Courts; emergencies are handled by an elected Executive Council. All decisions of the Agencies and Courts can be appealed through public polls and referendums. 
**Direct Representatives:** Transition to direct democracy can be achieved easily under the current systems by electing Direct Representatives with this pledge : "On every major issue, I shall poll my constituents and vote in Congress strictly as instructed by the majority." Once a majority in Congress or Parliament, these representatives can the institute the full Direct Democracy system. The book presents the history and campaign materials of the first US Direct Democracy Campaign in 1984 in Congressional District 6 in Maryland
