DO 250 - Civics at a Human Scale w/ Wally Chamberlain aka Anarchocontrarian and Ashley

How can localism serve as an alternative to large-scale governance and globalized economies?

Ashley and Wally discuss small-scale, secular models for civic and economic organizing, and compare/contrast them with their Catholic equivalents (subsidiarity and distribution). We discuss practical ways to build community agency, neighborliness, and autonomy at the smallest scale, exploring the New England town meeting model and the role of direct democracy,

If you are interested in regaining a sense of local autonomy in a large-scale world, this episode is for you!
