An analysis of the legitimacy of a local participatory process

By Ludwig M Hanisch

The ambivalence among the public between disengagement from politics and a desire for political participation is one of the key processes of social change in recent decades. Whilst this shift in values has so far had little impact on legislation at the federal level, the sub-national and local levels provide a testing ground for a wide range of so-called democratic innovations. The author analyses a citizen participation process with a particular focus on the concept of throughput legitimacy.
