Resolutions

2. What are resolutions?

A resolution is a group’s current ruling on a particular topic, such as a paragraph of a statute, a budgetary decision or a strategic paper that has already been agreed on.
Adhocracy enables participants to put already existing resolutions of their group to discussion and to vote on proposed variants.

On Adhocracy the currently valid resolution is called status quo. Variants always relate to the current status quo. This ensures that discussion are based on the latest resolution.

An amendment of a resolution automatically becomes the new status quo if it achieved the required majority in a poll. This also applies, if there is a request for a resolution on a topic that the group has not determined a status quo for, yet. For the time inbetween Adhocracy automatically creates a document that refers to the fact that there currently are no regulations. If there shall not be a poll on a particular topic at all participants can vote for the transitory document instead.

In this way, incompatible resolutions through Adhocracy can be prevented.
