Militants and Citizens: The Politics of Participatory Democracy in Porto Alegre
ISBN: 9780804751230 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

But in Porto Alegre, a host city to the World Social Forum, thousands of ordinary citizens participate in local governance, making binding decisions on urban policy on a daily basis.

Popular Democracy: The Paradox of Participation
ISBN: 9781503600768 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Local participation is the new democratic imperative. In the United States, three-fourths of all cities have developed opportunities for citizen involvement in strategic planning. The World Bank has invested $85 billion over the last decade to support community participation worldwide. But even as these opportunities have become more popular, many contend that they have also become less connected to actual centers of power and the jurisdictions where issues relevant to communities are decided. With this book, Gianpaolo Baiocchi and Ernesto Ganuza consider the opportunities and challenges of...

ISBN: 9780804760553 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Despite increasing interest in how involvement in local government can improve governance and lead to civic renewal, questions remain about participation's real impact. This book investigates participatory budgeting--a mainstay now of World Bank, UNDP, and USAID development programs--to ask whether its reforms truly make a difference in deepening democracy and empowering civil society. Looking closely at eight cities in Brazil, comparing those that carried out participatory budgeting reforms between 1997 and 2000 with those that did not, the authors examine whether and how institutional...
