I believe in direct democracy. I believe that there should be representation, but I believe representatives should be instantly recalled if they make a decision that there constituents do not like. So the people would get together and decide stuff and the delegate would make it happen. Not much different in structure than we have now, just far different ways of doing the governing.
The economic structure would be like a syndicalist structure. Unions of workers would control the resources with delegates being held accountable to the workers. Every industry would have tiers of delegation and the technology we have now would allow for fast information travel. Workers would be paid according to hours and production. If you are fucking off, you shouldn't get paid the same as somebody who's putting in hard work. Like the above, workers would make decisions and delegates would act on it.
If you wanted fine points and such I suggest you read these books.

I don't agree with everything, but they shaped they shaped my views a lot along with Mikhail Bakunin.
