Creative democracy, with extended footnotes to the future

Creative democracy is a new name for a new process – that of enabling everyone, via utopian software (or softopia), to take back the creative and directive parts of industrial living that up to now have been the prerogative of professionals. The form of the essay embodies the meta-process of changing from the objectivity that is necessary to rationalistic central control, through changes of convention, to informal post-industrialism in which the control and re-creation of political and economic life is shared by everyone.
