We the People: Consenting to a Deeper Democracy

We the People: Consenting to a Deeper Democracy is the first comprehensive presentation of the history and theoretical foundations of sociocracy by native English-speaking authors. The book includes personal narratives by the authors of experience with sociocracy, a history of its innovative development by Gerard Endenburg as a practical application of consent decision-making, extensive discussion of how the principles and methods are applied in organizations, and “How To” chapters.

In addition to sample bylaws and practical guides for circle meetings, the appendices include historically significant articles:

Frank Lester Ward, “Sociocracy”
Kees Boeke, “Democracy as It Might Be”
Gerard Endenburg, “Rational for a New Social Structure”

The text also includes an extensive Glossary and Bibliography.

The cover photo was taken by Graham Heywood of Cotgrave Village, Nottinghamshire, Uk. It was chosen for the cover as an image that conveys the sense of harmony and peacefulness that was Gerard Endenburg’s vision when he began working on a method for implementing sociocracy.
