Description[?]:
| Catherine Sass-Morgan, presidential candidate and one of the leading figures of the Moderate Party, has published a book called "In Defense of Popular Opinion". Sass-Morgan, who teaches Modern Political Theories at the Catholic University of Bayonne, expresses the idea of Popular Decision Making (PDM) as a natural consequence of the opinion of a country's citizenry. Thus, she states that the policy of a country's government must be entirely based on public opinion or the country will suffer from revolutions, civil wars, secession and coup d'etats. Now, while this might not seem a innovative, Sass-Morgan concludes that ideological fragmentation of a regime is therefore antisocial and results in particracy - the rule of parties that divide the "natural character" of the citizenry. |
