In this second installment in my series “The Failure of Central Student Government,” I will make the case that CSG be removed and replaced with a deliberative direct democracy system as a solution to the democratic failures outline in my initial post. I will first answer the question of why a deliberative direct democracy is the best alternative in theory to the current representative democracy. I will then answer the question of how the system in practice will work and be implemented. By drawing on numerous democratic theorists and empirical studies, I will make a strong case for this new, more democratic student government system where all student voices can be heard.
