This book investigates the extent to which depoliticisation
strategies, used to disguise the political character of
decision-making, have become the established mode of governance
within societies. Increasingly, commentators suggest that the
dominance of depoliticisation is leading to a crisis of
representative democracy or even the end of politics, but is this
really true? This book examines the circumstances under which
depoliticisation techniques can be challenged, whether such
resistance is successful and how we might understand this process.
It addresses these questions by adopting a novel comparative and
interdisciplinary perspective. Scholars from a range of European
countries scrutinise the contingent nature of depoliticisation
through a collection of case studies, including: economic policy;
transport; the environment; housing; urban politics; and government
corruption. The book will be appeal to academics and students
across the fields of politics, sociology, urban geography,
philosophy and public policy.
