[governance] Marco Civil passed

[Suresh Ramasubramanian]

Corporations have just as much right to be at the table.  As do individuals who contribute their own effort and resources.
 
Simply demanding a stake “just because” has never worked, not even in a representational democracy.

That's what happens when a President throws her/his political weight in the mix... tipping the momentum created by civil society over the finish line ;) Yes, congratulations to Brazil across the board.

Brazil deserves a big applaud!

BTW, relating this to the discussion at the civil society meeting today,  this is a show-piece of a democratic systems (legislature passing the law) based on participatory democracy (the  huge, well-structured, really bottom up, open, transparent public consultations and inputs) with a strong element of multistakeholderism based on clear processes (the initial Internet principles of CGI.Br)

and NOT 'equal footing multistakeholderism' where corporates would be put on the same pedestal as legitimate people's representation in relation to 'actual decision making' for 'public policies' and laws.
