The technique has been used thousands of times, by groups ranging to over 2000 participants, and in 78 countries, including whole villages in South Africa and very conflicted people in the Middle East. In the early days of the U.S.A., there were Open Space meetings, called Town Meetings, where people gathered to discuss problems important to them. Sometimes the discussions were heated, as was expected, but nevertheless, often solutions were found. If not, then a vote was taken. Harrison Owen has written a book, The Practice of Peace, and there are excerpts on his web site, including his experiences in South Africa. http://www.openspaceworld.com/intro%20to%20pop.htm
