Democracy faces stern tests around the world in the twenty-first
century. Democratic Design argues that to respond effectively and
creatively, democrats need to work with a versatile new toolkit of
concepts and institutions. The book assembles this toolkit - the
democratic design framework - through an original blend of design
thinking and democratic theory and practice. It shows how to use
the framework to renew and enliven our ideas of democracy across a
range of contexts. The book explores a wide range of institutions,
from the familiar (such as parliamentary procedures) to the
innovative (such as citizens' assemblies). It underlines the
importance of systemic and contextual design, and the practical
enactment of democratic values such as equality, freedom and
participation. Democratic Design shows how a comprehensive approach
to rethinking the present and future of democratic governance is
possible, indeed essential. It draws together, and moves beyond,
the best of existing theories and models by devising a new
framework that is both practical and theoretically robust.
