CivicLex gets a shoutout from a scholar in Argentina!

Last week, we discovered that author Luis Caro Figueroa wrote about CivicLex in his article "Reforma, reforma, que algo queda." He highlighted CivicLex as an example of collective governance that offers an opportunity to create new forms of civic power! Here's a translated blurb we found especially impactful:

"[W]e should promote the formation and action of new and varied civic organizations, which are not limited to a contemplative and merely formal existence but rather are genuinely capable of designing a real political agenda and directly influencing political decision-making. Democracy is not a matter of a few wise men, but rather an effortful collective construction, which requires a permanent exercise of modesty."

We're honored to receive such an unexpected and exciting shoutout from our neighbors several countries away!
