CfP Special Issue Public participation amidst hostility: when the uninvited shape matters of collective concern
Dear colleagues,
We would like to invite you to consider contributing to the special issue Public participation amidst hostility: when the uninvited shape matters of collective concern, which developed based on a EASST 2022 panel and which will be published in the journal Social Inclusion. Please find more details below and, if you are interested, contact the guest editors for a draft of the 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 where participation is not invited, or is 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?
