Most public life is taught as a question of who is right and who won. Structural Civics starts elsewhere: how authority is created, what limits constrain it, who is allowed to question it, and what happens to a person who does. Seven pieces, in the order they were written. The field tools that go with them are kept separately, as cards you can carry: the VSLI Operator’s Card, the Tribe-Capture Check and the SHIT Check. ...
