Описание: Democratic practices - participation, citizenship rights, and an inclusionary state - enhance human development. The book uncovers how local democratic governance improves well-being, related to poverty, health, women`s empowerment, and education. Municipalities that invest in democracy attain greater human development. Commitments to democracy thus have real consequences for citizens.
In 1988, Brazil’s Constitution marked the formal establishment of a new democratic regime. In the ensuing two and a half decades, Brazilian citizens, civil society organizations, and public officials have undertaken the slow, arduous task of building new institutions to ensure that Brazilian citizens have access to rights that improve their quality of life, expand their voice and vote, change the distribution of public goods, and deepen the quality of democracy. Civil society activists and ordinary citizens now participate in a multitude of state-sanctioned institutions, including public policy management councils, public policy conferences, participatory budgeting programs, and legislative hearings. Activating Democracy in Brazil examines how the proliferation of democratic institutions in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, has transformed the way in which citizens, CSOs, and political parties work together to change the existing state.
According to Wampler, the 1988 Constitution marks the formal start of the participatory citizenship regime, but there has been tremendous variation in how citizens and public officials have carried it out. This book demonstrates that the variation results from the interplay of five factors: state formation, the development of civil society, government support for citizens’ use of their voice and vote, the degree of public resources available for spending on services and public goods, and the rules that regulate forms of participation, representation, and deliberation within participatory venues. By focusing on multiple democratic institutions over a twenty-year period, this book illustrates how the participatory citizenship regime generates political and social change.
Описание: This book examines the rise, spread and decline of participatory budgeting in Brazil. It examines what the arc of the creation, spread, and decline of participatory budgeting tells us about the long-term viability and potential democratic impact of this innovative democratic institution as it spreads globally.

Описание: This story from the Depression-era Pacific Northwest delivers rich sensory detail, well-drawn characters, an evocative sense of place, thoroughly researched history, and a fresh, strong voice. It`s like Little House on the Prairie, except with lots more fish and a pet seal.
