The institutional forms of liberal democracy developed in the
nineteenth century seem increasingly ill-suited to the problems we
face in the twenty-first. This dilemma has given rise in some
places to a new, deliberative democracy, and this volume explores
four contemporary empirical cases in which the principles of such a
democracy have been at least partially instituted: the
participatory budget in Porto Alegre; the school decentralization
councils and community policing councils in Chicago; stakeholder
councils in environmental protection and habitat management; and
new decentralised governance structures in Kerala. In keeping with
the other Real Utopias Project volumes, these case studies are
framed by an editors' introduction, a set of commentaries, and
concluding notes.
