520			_aThrough a case study this paper explores consensus organizing as a community practice model explicating its core tenets, strategies, and tactics. The premises of consensus organizing make it different from conflict approaches. Specifically, consensus organizing believes that: power does not have to be redistributed but it can be grown, mutual self-interest provides a powerful tool for change, people often behave in reasonable ways when given reasonable choices, and alliances that support social justice goals can be formed between people of divergent backgrounds. Consensus organizing should not be viewed as a replacement for other forms of community organizing and political activity, but rather as an additional tool for organizers.
