[Sophie Dennis @sophiedennis]

I have become uncomfortable with the simple view that to deal with a situation that is urgent, complex and dynamic the correct response is top-down autocratic command + control. (Or perhaps more accurately with how the top-down autocrats apply “command and control”?) 1/n
