    Demos's Interests
GeneralWe're interested in how people's personal choices in every day life contribute to the common good. We're particularly interested in people, democracy, politics. These, and cake, trips to costcutter at ten to five, exceedingly long introspective conversations that don't go anywhere, drifting into the dark at shunt, getting squashed at borough market, feeling your blood run cold after inadvertantly hitting send, buying cards in hayes galleria, the map at the bottom of the GLA building, knocking back oysters from pont de la tour under tower bridge, interns, knowing that the thrill is gone now that demos has a myspace page

About me:
Demos is about democracy but not only at elections. What it means for schools, workplaces and public spaces. .. There are 25 of us in an office in London Bridge and a whole bunch of other people across the country who also work with us sometimes. We spend a lot of time talking to people about the politics of their lives and thinking about what that means for governments, organisations, schools and families.

We've been making videos, and they're all on DemosTV on Youtube.
Here's a few.


Everyday Democracy


As You Like It

"Dan's Story" - For Your Information



Who I'd like to meet:
People with new and interesting ideas or even interesting and old ones. We would also like to meet Hilary Clinton, Malcom Gladwell, Salman Rushdie, Yochai Benkler, David Attenbrough, Adam Curtis and Barack Obama.

China and the West to debate cooler consumption

Young people in China will get a chance to debate urgent questions of how to live, what to buy and how to reduce their carbon footprint with young people in the rest of the world in chinadialogue.net’s pioneering Cooler Living forum
launched this week.

What is Cooler Living?

• Articles written by experts and young people from China, the US, and around the world on sustainable consumption
• A bilingual forum for online debate across the language barrier between Chinese and British students on climate change and personal responsibility
• Exclusive features on the music business and climate change in the run up to the Live Earth concerts
• An online photo competition for young people
• An instant debate page to talk about the hot issues that affect young people’s lives and futures

Go to chinadialogue.net and join the debate!

you can't drop Deleuze in! Francis Wheen will never be your friend whether or not the 21st century proves to be Deleuzian.
