Les discours sur la « démocratie de proximité » ou la « démocratie participative » ont le vent en poupe. Dans un contexte de remise en question du rôle de l'État, la participation des habitants constituerait un facteur favorisant à la fois une nouvelle légitimité politique et une modernisation de la gestion publique locale. C'est ainsi que se développent depuis plusieurs années des dispositifs qui entendent améliorer la gestion de proximité en s'appuyant sur la participation citoyenne. Ces expériences appellent des réflexions plus théoriques sur la démocratie et les politiques publiques. Dans quelle mesure une activité citoyenne peut-elle se conjuguer avec une réforme de la gestion urbaine ? Quelles sont les conditions d'une véritable démocratie participative ? Comment l'institutionnalisation de la participation s'articule-t-elle aux tendances plus globales d'évolution des sociétés contemporaines ? Cet ouvrage collectif s'efforce de répondre à ces questions en donnant une vision d'ensemble des dispositifs adoptés et des politiques menées, dans une perspective comparative internationale. Des conseils de quartier français aux jurys citoyens en Allemagne et en Espagne, de l'usage du référendum en Suisse aux empowerment zones en Amérique du Nord, en passant par les budgets participatifs d'Amérique latine et les politiques participatives de gestion de l'eau en Afrique australe, les différentes contributions analysent les modalités des transformations de l'action publique locale et, par là, des institutions et pratiques de la démocratie.

Wie kann Kulturpolitik so gestaltet werden, dass - im Sinne einer Cultural Governance - nicht nur Politik und nachgeordnet Verwaltung in Entscheidungsprozesse einbezogen sind, sondern auch die Betroffenen: Künstler_innen, Kulturschaffende, Bürger_innen? Welche Allianzen und Konflikte entstehen in Verhandlungssituationen? Und wie argumentieren Vertreter_innen von Politik, Verwaltung und Zivilgesellschaft? Anke Simone Schad entwickelt anhand der Beispiele Linz und Graz einen Rahmen für Governance-Analysen und bietet darüber hinaus Antworten auf die Fragen, woran Cultural Governance oft scheitert und wie gutes Regieren idealerweise aussehen könnte.

Quer durch alle gesellschaftlichen Bereiche besitzt das Konzept der Prävention ein hohes Maß an Akzeptanz. Das Bedürfnis nach Sicherheit tritt besonders in der kommunalen Kriminalprävention in Erscheinung und konkretisiert sich dort in Form eines Konglomerats aus diskursiver Wahrheitsproduktion und ortsgebundenen Alltagspraktiken. Im Anschluss an Michel Foucault und Algirdas Julien Greimas regt Verena Schreiber zu einem spekulativen Denken über unser Verhältnis zur Prävention an und spürt jenen Zusammenhängen nach, welche die Kriminalprävention zu einem Freiheitsversprechen werden lassen, das aus keiner Perspektive mehr in Frage steht. Besprochen in: forum kriminalprävention, 4 (2011)

Challenging the notion that modernization is a homogenizing process, Susan Rogers contends that in the course of large-scale transformations communities often reproduce and strengthen distinctive cultural and social features. To make this argument, she focuses on the French farming community of "Ste Foy" during a period of rapid change (1945-75). Using ethnographic field data and archival material that she collected as a "participant-observer," she finds an intriguing puzzle: an allegedly archaic social form, the ostal, has become increasingly common in the community. The ostal, a type of family farm organized around an extended "stem family" household, is a variant of the stem family systems associated with preindustrial southern Europe. How have Ste Foyans continued to remake this "archaic" mode as their community grew more prosperous and more involved in national and international markets? In showing how the specific identity of a community is reproduced rather than obliterated by modernization, the author reveals dialectical relationships between structure and change, history and culture, and the centralized nation-state and regional diversity. This analysis addresses anthropologists, historians, and scholars interested in local politics and economic development.

Born into a working-class Polish immigrant family in Elizabeth, New Jersey, Raymond Lesniak went on to become a major force in the tough and bruising world of state politics. In this remarkable memoir, he reflects upon his life and career fighting for social justice in the Garden State. He recounts the many causes he championed in his forty years as a state legislator, from the landmark Environmental Cleanup Responsibility Act to bills concerning animal protections, marriage equality, women’s reproductive rights, and the abolition of the death penalty. He also delves into his experiences on the national stage as a key advisor for Bill Clinton and Al Gore’s presidential campaigns. With refreshing candor, Lesniak describes both his greatest achievements and his moments of failure, including his unsuccessful 2017 gubernatorial run. Cultivating Justice in the Garden State is both a gripping American success story and a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the inner workings of our political system. It offers an insider’s perspective on the past fifty years of New Jersey politics, while presenting a compelling message about what leaders and citizens can do to improve the state’s future.
