Helmut Krauch / Studiengruppe für Systemforschung: Orakel (Study Group for Systems Research: Oracle) The most far reaching social experiment by the Heidelberg “Studiengruppe für Systemforschung” (Study Group for Systems Research) was the three-part series “Orakel” (Oracle) broadcast in 1971 by the Westdeutsche Rundfunk (West German Broadcast Service). In Helmut Krauch’s project – a computer aided television grassroots democracy – a “phone-in,” viewers panel and computer database enabled viewers to influence an “organized conflict” within a selected representative group. Krauch and the study group –Horst Rittel, Hans Paul Bardt and Jürgen Habermas were also involved – researched on research planning and decision making processes. During this time, the study group was already actively involved in political consulting for the German government and had, for example, developed a program for the reorganization of communication structures of the Chancellery.
