Governing can be anywhere.

Tetsuki Tamura

 

 

If governing is a decision on “a problem related to everyone,” both a family and a classroom are a place to govern. There is also a majority vote, negotiation, and entrustment. What is important here is not the “rightness” of the conclusion but “being convinced” about the way of deciding, says the political scientist. From a dialogue with a law philosopher Kosuke Nasu, "Troublesome Freedom And Imposed Happiness"  (the Keisoshobo website). However, be careful not to change your consent to acceptance.
