*** Democracies Online Newswire - http://www.e-democracy.org/do *** Sweden is one of the e-democracy hot spots to watch. From a governmental interest perspective interest is very high. The difference is that you are beginning to see public funded research and real efforts and not just supportive talk.

Visitors now can take active part of the debate on democracy by discussing with the delegates of the commission. The present topic regards the question why young people abandon party politics. Commission reports and writings are available as pdf-files. The site also provides opportunities for municipalities or organizations to apply for money to democracy projects. There is also a calendar of events and an extensive link list. ^ ^ ^ ^ Steven L.
