Normative Political Science

Political science can help make better political systems than we have now! This book shows how that can be done. Its done by defining, for the first time ever, what makes a "good political system." This is NOT just another moral philosophy, like all the ones that have failed humanity in the past. Here is the scientific measure of a political system's goodness.

An engineer can assess the operational goodness of a car, or any machine, by comparing the way it works with the blueprint specs for it. A well-functioning machine is one that fulfills the specifications for its operation. If a machine is not operating well, an inspection can be made to find out which specs are not being met.

The operating specifications for a well-functioning political system are spelled-out in the book. These will pass any critical test you can subject them to. But unlike the blueprint for machines, the specs for a political system include how The People living in the system feel about their experience. Therefore, the better functioning political systems are those in which The People are most satisfied.

Here, then, is a Revolutionary Challenge to status quo political science.

If you want to change the world, here is a way to get started.
