Counsel, Majority and Consensus, discovers their origins in traditional, medieval and modern times, and traces their evolution over centuries up to the present. The study reveals that these three paradigms have an ethical foundation, deeply rooted in historical experiences. The narrative takes the reader into the very moments when individual leaders and organisers made the crucial developments in white heat of critical moments in history, such as the English Revolution of the 1640s, the Chartist Movement of the 1840s and the early Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s. This history provides a valuable resource for resolving current social movement conflict over decision making. 410 0$aStudies in Critical Social Sciences$v84. 606 $aGroup decision making$vCase studies 606 $aPolitical sociology 606 $aDeliberative democracy 606 $aSocial history 606 $aDeliberative democracy$2fast 606 $aGroup decision making$2fast 606 $aPolitical sociology$2fast 606 $aSocial history$2fast 608 $aCase studies.$2fast 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aGroup decision making 615 0$aPolitical sociology. 615 0$aDeliberative democracy. 615 0$aSocial history. 615 7$aDeliberative democracy. 615 7$aGroup decision making. 615 7$aPolitical sociology. 615 7$aSocial history. 676 $a306.2 700 $aBlunden$b Andy$0928688 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910480215403321 996 $aThe origins of collective decision making$92087097 997 $aUNINA
