The version-controlled political party

This repository is an 'experimental template' for accountability and efficiency in politics. It exemplifies ideas presented in this blog post: https://medium.com/@Lapidus/fork-me-the-version-controlled-political-party-1ab17a86188d

For example, how to version-control:

  • Budgets
  • Party program
  • Political proposals
  • Ministerial roles
  • Large donors

Sample data

The sample data in this repository comes from the Swedish Social Democratic Party (socialdemokraterna.se), and is solely included for demo purposes. Political parties around the world are encouraged to build upon this example using their own documents and key figures.
