"Over the past few decades and throughout the world, numerous government-initiated experiments and attempts at directly engaging and including citizens have emerged as remedies for a variety of problems faced by modern democracies, including political disaffection and insufficient capacity to deal with the complexity inherent in many contemporary public problems, such as climate change and segregation. In practice, these attempts are given many names, such as citizen panels, deliberative fora, collaborative dialogues, etc. In the academic literature as well, the phenomenon falls under many different headings, for instance collaborative, deliberative or interactive governance. Participatory Governance and Representative Democracy refers to this empirical phenomenon as local participatory governance, that is, government-sponsored direct participation between invited citizens and local officials in concrete arrangements and concerning problems that affect them. Participatory governance, we argue, may take many forms, regarding (1) type of interaction and type of communication between participants within the specific participatory arrangement (e.g., deliberative vs. aggregative) as well as regarding (2) the relation and connection between the specific arrangement and the more traditional representative structures (e.g., compatible, incompatible, transformative or irrelevant). The proposed edited volume addresses the matter of institutionalization, highlighting the difficulties associated with establishing stability and a shared understanding of the roles and rules among citizens, local politicians and administrators in participatory arrangements."--Provided by publisher.
International audience ; French mayors are allowed to developanysystemthey wishforincludinginhabitants in urban planning, but since2002,the law on 'grassroots democracy' [démocratie de proximité], also called 'Loi Vaillant', statutes theminimum level of participationthathasto beorganizedby eachcity authorityin cities over 80,000 inhabitants(Blatrix, 2009).As a result, the mayor, who is the executive officialelected along with acity council every six years(Dion, 1986; Garraud, 1989; Mabileau, 1995), has thelegal obligation to put together "neighbourhood councils"whose role is strictly advisory.Members of the mayor's majority in the city council may be part of these councils, and there is no strict obligation to givethema budget, to havethemmeet regularly or to take into account the results of their activity.Whether participation is pushed forward by mayors tryingto promote new forms of residentinvolvement in the city affairs,or controlledwithin the tight frameworkof the law, participation in French citiesis managed by the city administration. Thus, in France we should expect participatory governance to betightly connected to the constraints and imperatives of the leaders of each city –the mayors
