Document Summary
Trustee model of representation: those selected to make decisions must ultimately have the capacity to overrule the populace . Delegate model of representation: the representative is to advocate for the views of the electors . Sovereignty cannot be reversed any law which the people has not rectified in person is void; it is not law at all. The english people (who live under representative democracy) believes itself to be free; it is gravely mistaken; it. Established a system of collective self-rule: government positions paid at a workers wage, representatives could be recalled and replaced by electors anytime, only legitimate force by the national guard (a genuine peoples army) Arguably, the revolt temporality overthrew hierarchies of gender, class and religion . Labour unions: shop stewards and role of rank-and-file membership directly involved in decision making activities, bureaucratic structures and professionalization has hindered this significantly (see camfield)
