The shift from government to governance has become a starting point
for many studies of contemporary policy-making and democracy.
Practices of Freedom takes a different approach, calling into
question this dominant narrative and taking the variety, hybridity
and dispersion of social and political practices as its focus of
analysis. Bringing together leading scholars in democratic theory
and critical policy studies, it draws upon new understandings of
radical democracy, practice and interpretative analysis to
emphasise the productive role of actors and political conflict in
the formation and reproduction of contemporary forms of democratic
governance. Integrating theoretical dialogues with detailed
empirical studies, this book examines spaces for democratisation,
institutional design, democratic criteria and learning, whilst
mobilising the frameworks of agonistic and aversive democracy,
informality and decentred legitimacy in cases from youth engagement
to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
