Purpose
Democratic systems rely on representation, consent, and accountability to translate public judgment into public authority. Over time, however, the mechanisms through which legitimacy is maintained can become episodic rather than continuous.
Continuous Delegation presents a structural model for redesigning how democratic legitimacy is sustained. Rather than treating elections as isolated moments of validation, it reframes representation as an ongoing act of delegation, consent as a condition that must be maintained, and accountability as a continuous institutional requirement.
This work does not advocate ideological realignment or partisan reform. It proposes a reconfiguration of the institutional architecture through which authority is granted, maintained, and recalibrated. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
