Communicative assent is a form of deliberative decision-making that uses delegable proxy in a very specific way[further explanation needed] so as to preserve the voters' explicit casting of a vote. Communicative assent can be used with many different types of vote counting schemes as the process itself is ambivalent to how the votes are tallied.[1]

Practical applications

edit

Occupy Wall Street New York City General Assembly is evaluating a communicative assent model.[2][as of?][needs update]
