Public Policy for Democracy

This book is an important and timely contribution to the current discussion of how to get people more involved in their own governance. The contributors urge policymakers and policy analysts to promote a more vigorous and inclusive democracy by incorporating concerns about citizenship in their craft, rather than strictly emphasizing efficiency and effectiveness.
