The Democracy Chain (TDC) is dedicated to publishing free and open commentary and discourse on public policy and political issues as written by art writers and artists with a dedicated interest and track record in such political and public policy issues as informed by their professional expertise as art and culture critics. 

​

TDC is dedicated to and supportive of civil, moral and aesthetically focused discourse and causes. It is an expression of and commitment to the preservation and furtherance of an open and democratic society. 

​

The metaphor of the chain serves as a source of cohesion and strength, but also a symbol of the need to break free of constraints to assert our natural freedom in a safe and trusting relationship with a government owned by and answerable to citizens in the exercise of their franchise.
