Dear colleagues,
We invite contributions to a special issue Public participation amidst
hostility: when the uninvited shape matters of collective concern to be
published in the Social Inclusion journal. Please find more details below and,
if you are interested, contact the guest editors for a draft Introduction
text.
Topic:
Ways of taking part in formulating and addressing matters of shared concern
are diverse. The practices people employ to engage in shaping societal orders
go far beyond organized formats such as citizen juries or co-production
sessions, where questions and tasks are, to a large extent, pre-set.
Particularly creative practices emerge in situations when participation is not
invited, or discouraged, or even met with hostility. Such situations are not
exceptional because even in established democracies pockets of exclusion
exist. For this special issue, we challenge authors to consider, among others,
how participation is made possible in situations of hostility to
participation: What are the consequences of participatory practices under
adverse circumstances? How can we understand and theorize the diversity of
forms of participation in contemporary societies? How can we make studies of
public participation relevant to the multiple settings where exclusion and
animosity to public input exist?
