This book explores the international diffusion of Participatory
Budgeting (PB), a local policy created in 1989 in Porto Alegre,
Brazil, which has now spread worldwide. The book argues that the
action of a group of individuals called "Ambassadors of
Participation" was crucial to make PB part of the international
agenda. This international dimension has been largely overlooked in
the vast literature produced on participatory democracy devices.
The book combines public policy analysis and the study of
international relations, and makes a broad comparative study of PB,
including cases from Latin America, Europe, and Sub-Saharan Africa.
The book also presents a new methodology developed to examine PB
diffusion, the "transnational political ethnography", which
combines in-depth interviews, participant observation and document
analysis both at the local and transnational level.
