N2 - Democracy is a matter of effective communication, not just preference aggregation. Normally it is only communication among humans about human interests that is at issue. But democracy can also exist or be denied in human dealings With the natural World. Ecological democratisation is therefore a matter of better integration of political and ecological communication.
