They outline their quantum political theory in rich detail, demonstrating how we have entered a phase of highly charged, erratic, and sometimes self-contradictory packets of social political energy that appears to occur with a rough regularity but with differing levels of velocity and force. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBecker and Slaton explore the current state and future of televoting, electronic town meetings, and other initiatives designed to put the public back into public affairs.
