Some recent articles of Cosma Shalizi

Cognitive Democracy with Henry Farrell
In Soviet Union, Optimization Problem Solves You
Versions of both articles appeared in http://crookedtimber.org/ which allows comments but I did not read them.
Cosma Shalizi's review of Jack Knight and James Johnson's book 'The Priority of Democracy' http://cscs.umich.edu/~crshalizi/reviews/knight-johnson.html
More reviews by Cosma Shalizi http://cscs.umich.edu/~crshalizi/reviews/
Some of the ideas seem to fit in with Sugata Mitra's ideas on teaching and the recnt struggle of civil society organizations frustrating the efforts of developed countries to limit the mandate of UNCTAD. In any case, I will be spending the next few weeks reading around these articles.
