520 How can government stay linked to its citizens? Across the
world, governments' basic principles are turned on their
heads as global markets, weakened national states, and
active citizens emerge. Governments increasingly act not
alone, but many governments and private groups make policy
jointly - labeled 'governance'. But this raises new
concerns for adequate citizen responsiveness. Leaders and
parties previously considered left or right make
unexpected choices - as leaders explore Third Ways, New
Political Cultures, and more. As policy choices grow more
complicated, they are harder to present to citizens -
which undermines citizen legitimacy of parties and elected
officials. How can government maintain democratic
accountability? This volume explores new answers by
probing citizen involvement in specific cities and
countries the world over. There is no single problem,
hence no single remedy. But by contrasting key elements of
national and local contexts, this volume offers lessons
about how citizens are variously activated; about what
works, where, and why. From specific results emerge
insights about how citizens maydrive policy, or be ignored,
in a time of turbulence and rapid culturalchange for
government policy making
