FOR ACADEMIA
Try to break it
A standing challenge to political scientists, constitutional lawyers and institutional designers.
The challenge is open
Start in the Full Corpus: 60+ published instruments and a complete written constitution. Every mechanism is specified. Nothing is hidden.
Your task: debunk DD&SA. No independent critique has broken it yet — be the first.
But victory has a price. If you break it, you must build — something better than politics, and better than DD&SA.
