This book makes an important contribution to contemporary debates
over the place of civic participation in democratic theory and
practice. Drawing on a detailed case study of the Blackbird Leys
area of Oxford, the book employs a novel empirical approach to ask
whether widespread participation in civic life can enhance the
prospects for democracy, given the low levels of participation
which tend to exist in deprived areas. Throughout, it presents an
account of participation rooted in the history and development of
the case, in order to avoid the kinds of abstraction which are
characteristic of many existing studies in the area. The book will
appeal to scholars working on democratic theory in applied
settings, and will be of interest to anyone concerned with
inequalities in civic participation.
