From http://integralpolitics.info/
Integral politics is an innovative style of politics that is based on developmental and holistic approaches to the self, culture, and society in an All Quadrant, All Levels (or AQAL) way of understanding politics. All Quadrants refers to the importance of understanding the interplay between subjective (the self), intersubjective (culture), objective (physiology and behavior) and interobjective (systems, including ecosystems, society, and institutions) realities, which are all valid and cannot be reduced to one another. All Levels emphasizes integral politics' developmental perspective which holds that people, culture, and society develop through successive stages of psychological development like the stages of moral development articulated by Lawrence Kohlberg, cognitive development identified by neo-Piagetian theorists (after Jean Piaget), Robert Kegan and Michael Commons, intersubjective or cultural development, and Spiral Dynamics. Institutions, like governmental and economic systems, often embody the prevailing cultural values in a society; as intersubjective values evolve, they influence the development of societal institutions.
We offer Integral information about Integral Politics that includes but is not limited to all political parties as well as philosophical disciplines. An Integral Inquiry that leads to an Integral Dialogue. What is the commonality among political parties that consider themselves Centrists, Moderates, Independents, Libertarians, Greens, Natural Law Party, Reform Party, We The People Party, Democrats, and Republicans?
Different people tend to think differently about various things. Different people have different core values for various reasons. Integral Politics enables people to understand how other people view things so that a useful dialogue about those things can take place.
One of the goals of the Integral Politics Information website is to offer a type of curriculum through dialogue-based learning that integrates technological tools. This approach emphasizes educational activities that are long-term, interdisciplinary, people-centered and integrated with real-world issues and practices, including local community service oriented action.
