The tangible value of increased water efficiency, reuse and recycling and improved social license to operate are moving more companies to adopt water stewardship strategies. This book frames an expanded strategy for water stewardship and business value creation, including brand value, that benefits a range of stakeholders including consumers, customers, investors and employees. The book shows that until recently the linkage between full business value and water stewardship has been missing from the corporate agenda. This linkage and value creation from a leading water strategy is increasingly important to socially responsible investors and "aspirationals" who value companies that have a social mission or focus to their overall business strategy. In general the largest portion of a company’s market capitalization is intangible value and understanding how a water strategy contributes to this intangible value is essential. The authors include cases studies and a framework or path forward to guide companies as they seek to build leading water strategy that goes beyond water stewardship to drive full business value from this investment. The book establishes the linkages and value from an integrated water and business strategy and an approach for companies to follow.

Representative democracy is in crisis. Legislatures do not accurately reflect all sectors of society. Ordinary citizens should have more say than merely pulling a ballot lever once every few years. A government that is merely 'for' the people is not any longer good enough. It is time to institute a government that is also 'by' and 'of' the people. The original Athenian democracy used a method altogether different than elections to select its officials. They used the system now used to select citizens for jury duty -- random selection, also called sortition. This essay reflects upon how the lessons from that first democracy might be used to develop a 'legislative jury' capable of truly representing all citizens without regard to party affiliation, financial status or any ideology other than fair play. The essay is about 10,000 words with images piquant and provocative. Abundantly footnoted. Includes links, bibliography, how to hold a workshop and access to other goods and services.

Hoping to be a forerunner of the Next Step For Democracy, Baltimore chooses its city council by random selection. The fifteen new council members must struggle to maintain this Peoples Platform against an uprising from the former powers-that-be.

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'.

Important and original, this book presents an entirely new way of understanding Technology - as the successor to the dominant ideologies that have underpinned the thought and practices of the West. Like Deity, State and Market, Technology displays the features of a modern myth, promising to deal with our existential concerns by creating a fully empowered sense of the individual on condition of our subjection to it. David Grant and Lyria Bennett Moses examine the dynamics of each of these ideologies, showing how Technology shares their mythological characteristics. They argue that this new myth has not only dominated science to establish its credentials but, utilising robust empirical evidence, they show how law has been imbued with mythological thinking. Demonstrating that law adopts a mythological approach in attempting to regulate technology, they argue that the pathway out of this mythological maze is to establish a new sense of political, corporate and personal self-responsibility. Students and scholars working in the field of emerging technologies and their relationship to politics, corporations, science, law, ethics, and any combination thereof, will find herein a wealth of new directions for their studies. Legal theorists and legal philosophers in particular will find much food for thought in the presentation of this new paradigm.

"On the Citizen House: A Disquisitive Fiction" is a novella of ideas in the form of socratic dialogue wrapped up in a road trip. Formatted as a proto-screenplay, description is sparse, characterization thin. Dialogue and visuals dominate. The Citizen House is the world's first national legislature chosen as the original Athenian democrats did -- by sortition (random selection). Two representatives face the challenges of advocating for their disparate views (eugenics / universal basic income) among a legislature demographically more reflective of the entire population than any other.
