Narrow Community. Political science and adjacent disciplines - Lemmy.world

The goal of this community is to educate everyone (and ourselves) by sharing the articles, books and general knowledge about politics and society. Named after a book “The Narrow Corridor: States, Societies, and the Fate of Liberty”

The community is mostly educational, without explicitly expressed favour to one or another political view.

Opinions and discussions are welcomed too, but without agreement on terminology it doesn’t make much sense, so currently I only make posts with some general knowledge sharing.

Can you expand in your own words on what you mean by “narrow” here?

  It named after a book “The Narrow Corridor”, and in the book it’s a metaphor of democracy: the narrow corridor between anarchy and tyranny.

FAQ:

Q: Why do I get a 404?

A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.

Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?

A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn’t get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn’t actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.
