Anketa is revolutionary bridging millennia of democratic participation from ancient Greece to your smartphone
Why Your Voice Matters: A short journey through ages
From the noisy crowds on the Agora of Greek Athens, where citizens gathered to debate and vote on matters of state, to the digital forums of the 21st century, the act of voting has been the milestone of collective decision-making.
For over 2,500 years, human societies have recognized that legitimacy arises not from coercion, but from consent. The Athenian model of direct democracy, though exclusionary by modern standards, laid the groundwork for a radical idea: every voice contributes to the health of a community.
Skip ahead to Enlightenment thinkers like Rousseau, who argued that a “social contract” binds rulers and the ruled, and the stakes become clear—governments derive authority from the people, and without participation, that contract frays.
The Cost of Silence: Alienation and Conflict
History is littered with warnings. The collapse of the Roman Republic, driven by elite power grabs and public disengagement, or the French Revolution, born from systemic exclusion, remind us that sidelining voices breeds instability. Even today, low voter turnout and political apathy correlate with distrust in institutions and polarization. When people feel unheard, societies fracture. A 2020 Pew Research study found that 58% of global citizens believe their governments ignore public opinion—a sentiment fueling protests worldwide. The lesson for you as a ANKETA users? Participation isn’t just a right; it’s a safeguard against discord.

Imagine a world where marginalized groups, busy professionals, or diaspora or local communities can weigh in effortlessly. ANKETA’s interface and adaptive design make this possible!
The Science of participation or Why ANKETA works so effectively?
Sociological polls underscores that inclusive decision-making strengthens social cohesion. This means real social interaction. Studies by Harvard’s Kennedy School reveal that communities with higher civic engagement experience lower crime rates and greater economic resilience.
ANKETA aligns with these findings by dismantling obstacles — like long queues or rigid schedules — that deter participation. By integrating principles of deliberative democracy, the ANKETA educates users through embedded resources on ballot issues, turning voting into an informed act rather than a perfunctory one!
From Ancient Stones to Digital Clouds
The Agora’s legacy isn’t stone monuments—it’s the enduring belief that every voice holds power. ANKETA honors this legacy by ensuring that in our fragmented, fast-paced world, no one must choose between being heard and living their life. Whether ratifying a corporate policy or shaping national legislation, ANKETA democratizes access to decision-making.

Putnam's "Bowling Alone" (2000) aptly illustrated how Americans were progressively becoming disengaged from their communities, resulting in lower social trust.
Because Anketa is a social platform, centered around public polling, we want to address the limitations of personalized filtering called media bubbles.
