Next Step for Democracy: A Short Play (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781980350293)

Marisa, Alma, Sami, and Ali live in a city embroiled in conflict and violence -- the Regime, the Opposition, the Opposition to the Opposition. When the fighting stops, they ask themselves: What is the best way to move forward? "Our Common Lot" argues for choosing legislators in the way that the first democracy did - by random lot, known as 'sortition.' This stage play of about a half-hour's performance is perfect for starting a conversation about what might be 'the next step for democracy.' It is easily performed, or simply read, as the take off for high school, university or adult groups of 'ordinary citizens'.
