Copying from a Notes comment

I suspect there is much to learn from Sociology and Political Economics history. Mechanisms for creating consensus or consent as well as active engagement and alignment of actors need gains( profit / utility ), subsidiarity ( lowest group can decide) , social reputation or social capital as well as culture (Values/ Norms) , Institutions and Markets.

Subject matter sub groups may function better and tiered voting with different sub groups having weights to assure a broader consensus may help but also be more bureaucratic .

Crypto allows lot of experimentation and quadratic voting is a good find .

in this age we are living with far greater complexity and volatility ( Change both technology and other ways) and need to develop tools and procedures to manage better . Tools to simulate outcomes under different scenarios ( Agent based models with more granular and faster visualization ) may help in shaping narratives

Experiment ahoy Luck for the most of us
