Sociocracy is a system and set of tools, which puts in to practice the values that humans instinctively hold dear, but which often disappear when we try to get things done with others, even if we try to do things ‘democratically.’ It is how we might go about getting things done if we forgot everything we’ve learned and started from scratch, as if common sense was common.</p>
