Talk:Cellular democracy

Reference problem[edit]

So this was developed by one guy, and the link just provided is the only source I could find. I don't know if it's even notable, but it was on the requested articles page. What does anybody think? Bsimmons666 (talk) 01:17, 7 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Prof. Foldvery is the world's leading geolibertarian theorist. His books and articles, including the idea of cellular democracy, have been influential in the Libertarian Party. - Brian Holtz, LPUS Platform Committee Secretary BrianHoltz (talk) 22:59, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

While I'm no economist I have been thinking along these lines since 2007 [Cascade Democracy] so consider the concept noteworthy. The issue is perhaps one of nomenclature and there is more discussion under the terms [Delegative Democracy] (broken link now)[| Delegable Proxy] [| Delegate Cascade]. I'll watch with interest.

Atribution problem[edit]

This is the exact system described in the BBC comedy series 'Yes, Prime Minister', in the episode 'Power to the people', first broadcast in 1988. Further, it closely resembles Soviet democracy/council democracy.

This article appears to be an attempt to assign credit to this one person for historical concepts and/or other peoples work. Why is this even an article, it should be merged into Soviet democracy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.191.188.55 (talk) 09:52, 5 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Although similar there is one significant difference between this and soviet democracy in that soviet democracy has divisions based upon profession in addition to divisions based upon district, from the article on soviet democracy: "In a Soviet democracy, voters are organized in basic units, for example the workers of a company, the inhabitants of a district, or the soldiers of a barracks."

Example: People's Republic of China[edit]

If I'm understanding this correctly this sounds very similar to how elections in the People's Republic of China work, can someone else corroborate this understanding of the linked article and if so is it worth including a relevant section here? Melias C (talk) 18:41, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
