Democracies are transforming worldwide, but at the same time
political inequality is increasing. This development threatens to
leave growing portions of mass publics effectively 'outside' the
political process. This volume brings together leading authorities
in the field of democratic citizenship and participation to address
pertinent questions concerning the quality of the democratic
political process at the beginning of the twenty-first century.
Analysing causes and consequences of recent developments in
democratic governance and citizenship, it contributes new and
original research to the ongoing debate on the crisis of
representative democracy. The contributors deal with a broad range
of issues including aspects of democratic citizenship and citizens'
perceptions of system performance, political inequality and the
democratic impact of participatory innovations. This book will be
of key interest to scholars and students in democratization
studies, democratic citizenship, comparative politics, political
sociology and political participation.
