Chapter 5

A New Renaissance and the Second Age of Enlightenment

Chapter 5

Chapter 5 will build upon the ideas presented in chapter 4. It will be shown how the non-hierarchical organizations that will spring up at the community level will begin to be proactive in uncovering the authentic discourse of their citizens. Through the collection of community conversations, the needs of the community will begin to emerge organically into a narrative. This process will be designed in such a way that the community may actually redefine itself as it discovers that the citizens themselves had bought into a false history about who they are, and what they are capable of. As the community redefines its expectations of itself it will be captured in real-time by the tools of this new institution.
