这篇文章为公民社会发起的全球人民大会(GPA)提供了理论上的理由，该大会将由全球公民普遍选举产生。两位作者认为，如果公民社会组织能够就GPA的框架达成一致，并举行全民选举，议会将准备成为一个极具影响力的全球机构。探索民主合法性的动态，以及它如何赋予政治机构权力，这篇文章探索了非官方创建的GPA如何逐渐承担起立法权力。
This article makes the theoretical case for a civil society initiated Global Peoples Assembly (GPA) that would be popularly elected by the global citizenry. The authors argue that if civil society organizations were able to agree on a framework for a GPA and to hold popular elections, the assembly would be poised to become a singularly influential global institution. Exploring the dynamics of democratic legitimacy, and how it acts to empower political institutions, the article explores how an unofficially created GPA could gradually assume law-making powers.
