"So, in a day where a new information technology allows us to participate globally in any conversation, our barriers of information are completely lowered and we can, more than ever before, express our desires and our concerns, our political system remains the same for the past 200 years and expects us to be contented with being simply passive recipients of a monologue." In this TED talk, Pia Mancini suggests that the 18th century slogan that formed the basis of our democracy, "no taxation without representation" can now be updated to "no representation without conversation." But, how do we get these conversations to take place? Mancini and her colleagues have figured out a way to do just that by using the technology we have available. Learn more about how they put it into practice in Argentina.
