How do you do online governance? This primer is intended as a guided tour through a curated set of readingsâbased on a year of study by the Yak Collective\*âthat can help groups and organizations navigate this question. In selecting the readings we cast a wide net, but in our discussions we made an effort to consider them from the specific perspective of online governance challenges. We believe the ideas surveyed here are applicable to groups and organizations with widely varied purposes, levels of autonomy, degrees of decentralization, and technological sophistication.
