In The New State, Follett observed that "'Representative government,' party organization, majority rule, with all their excrescences, are dead wood." She also said this [34]:

We have not yet tried democracy. Party or "interests" govern us with some fiction of the "consent of the governed," which we say means democracy. We have not even a conception of what democracy means. That conception is yet to be forged out of the crude ore of life.... Direct government as at present generally understood is a mere phantom of democracy. Democracy is not a sum in addition. Democracy is not brute numbers; it is a genuine union of true individuals. The question before the American people today is -- How is that genuine union to be attained, how is the true individual to be discovered?
