Direct Democracy in Chicago
Chicago's 49th Ward is the first U.S. government to let the people make their own budget, following a practice begun in Porto Alegre, Brazil over twenty years ago.
For more than twenty years, the people of Porto Alegre, Brazil have been directly determining how the city spends it's money. The process is called participatory budgeting and it is practiced in more than 1,200 municipalities worldwide today. Chicago's 49th Ward became the first US community to adopt the practice in 2009, and is now repeating the process again this year. We speak to Ines Sommer, a filmmaker and resident of the ward about the process thus far.

This is what I believe in. Give people collective responsibility and power, and they will take their democratic participation very seriously. They do not participate in consultations where they are played for fools and asked to vote once every four years. Wow. Anyone, 16 years and above, with or without citizenship, can participate in elaborating the proposals and deciding what projects will be undertaken by public funding. Let's get such systems implemented all over the world ! Michaël Lessard [me contacter] Média communautaire à Québec - calendrier de la démocratie en action Siriel-Média www.siriel.info [ ] |

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une
Politique éditoriale
, qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.
This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an
Editorial Policy
, which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
