Innovative forums that integrate citizen deliberation into policy
making are revitalizing democracy in many places around the world.
Yet controversy abounds over whether these forums ought to be seen
as authentic sources of public opinion and how they should fit with
existing political institutions. How can civic forums include less
powerful citizens and ensure that their perspectives are heard on
equal terms with more privileged citizens, officials, and policy
experts? How can these fragile institutions communicate citizens'
policy preferences effectively and legitimately to the rest of the
political system? Deliberation, Democracy, and Civic Forums
proposes creative solutions for improving equality and publicity,
which are grounded in new theories about democratic deliberation, a
careful review of research and practice in the field, and several
original studies. This book speaks to scholars, practitioners, and
sponsors of civic engagement, public management and consultation,
and deliberative and participatory democracy.
