Mehr zum Buch

The book presents findings from a research team's examination of citizen participation in local governance across seven European countries. It emphasizes enhancing public involvement in urban redevelopment and public services. After extensive collaboration, case studies were developed with insights from European and American officials and activists. The culmination of this research was a symposium in Washington, D.C., fostering dialogue among scholars, policymakers, and activists. The final case studies and commentaries offer practical suggestions tailored for city officials and citizen advocates.
