Podcast: Designing Open Democracy: "Trust, a concept analysis" (After: Fake News Trivia) (2019-12-11 Wednesday)

Hi All Members of Designing Open Democracy,

Before the year ends, this is a gathering about how the year in democracy has ended, as well as to discuss what the future may hold for democracies around the world. Our guest Alexar Pendashteh (then director of Open Source Industries Australia) presents his analysis on the nature of trust and how society conceptualises and acts upon it, joined by Andrew Kay (of the Angry Aussie YouTube channel), cooperative expert Antony McMullen from the audience, and host Brian Khuu.

Hello Everyone!

Thanks very much to all who were able to attend the first Designing Open Democracy Meetup!

Below, I wish to give everyone a summary of what was discussed for those who were unable to make it, here's a summary of what occurred:

  • Introduction of attendees; background of their interest and involvement in democracy reform
  • Basic concepts of democracy (direct, representative, deliberative and majoritarian)
