Was Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) in Minneapolis More Inclusive?Erica Mauter
My masters thesis research asked the question: "Did the use of the ranked choice voting electoral system in the Minneapolis 2013 municipal elections achieve its purported benefits by functioning as a more inclusive electoral system and by inspiring more inclusive campaigns?"
I publicly presented this research on May 1, 2014, for my MA in Organizational Leadership at St. Catherine University in St. Paul, MN.

Empowering citizens towards transformative development in Malawi: addressing...IFPRIMaSSP
A critical look at the policy and practice trends over the past 50 years of an independent Malawi and 20 years of a democratic Malawi, it is clear that Malawi has lacked an effective developmental and democratic social contract between the state and citizens. This paper argues that at this moment and going forward there is an urgent need to find a ‘growth-enhancing’ and ‘democracy-deepening’ path to change that can stand the test of the frequent regime changes, which keeps Malawi on a vicious cycle of poverty and dependency. In order to find this path, there is need to cultivate the politics of taking responsibility, transparency, and accountability, drawing these from a continued renewal of societal values at all levels. These societal values would be developed within a construct of collective action with rules of the game that work for all actors regardless of their official labels or positions. Using evidence from research, the paper provides very practical ways of doing this. This for example includes how initiatives such as the Constituency Development Fund (CDF) and the Farm Input Subsidy Programme (FISP), which are currently implemented mainly out of political correctness rather than transformative change, can be turned into opportunities to reconstruct state-citizen social contracts that are ‘growth enhancing’ and ‘democracy-deepening’ from the bottom up. Development is firstly political and then technical and not the other way round. Therefore, the tough questions that exit in how politics informs development and change need to be addressed for transformative change to take place.
