View source for Societal civic intelligence indicators

Here are some possible answers (or are they ''hypotheses''??)...

* New organizations devoted to civic causes (and new networks, critical mass, etc. that connect them)

* Qualitative differences in new — and established — organizations

* Changed "issue environment" (size, constitution and diversity)

* Increased resource flow to civic intelligence organizations

* New framing concepts and vocabulary — "human rights", "sustainability"

* Educational and cultural references (in literature, schools, museums, theater, art, music, etc.)

* Changing reward structures

* Active campaigns — e.g. US elections and global anti-war movement
