Abstract

Right now, several hundred communities across the United States aren't waiting for the power brokers to fix the broken political system that has brought humanity to the brink of economic and environmental collapse. They're doing it themselves by seizing political authority within their own municipalities and making binding laws to transform this system into a sustainable one. In doing so, they are taking on the basic operating system of America and changing it into one which recognises a right to local, community self-government that corporations cannot override.
