the global vote is a web2.0 site dedicated to providing an alternate means of measuring global opinion with regard to UN resolutions. structured like a blog, each resolution is a timed post with room for comments and a vote. the votes are tallied by country and displayed as they will stand in the UN, as well as how they would be represented by a one country, one vote scenario or by democratic representation (based on popular vote). the site suffers from poor design and arguably biased toward global citizens with internet access, nevertheless it proposes an interesting model by mirroring an elected body of world representatives. with the right dissemination this ‘mirror’ stands to be fairer than the delegate model, or at least provides a needed balance to the often unjust UN hierarchy of nations.
