"Participatory Democracy" was originally an SDS slogan. It never worked
because in practice it operated in a way similar to the hierarchy of
cliques in a high school class. Some sort of "charisma" generated the
hierarchy. Hence the actual leadership was not formally or actually
responsible to the membership.
