Book Description:

Governments are increasingly challenged by citizens who demand for more than just classical representation through elections. Citizen movements call for modes of continuous and issue-oriented participation. This volume addresses the question to what extent new forms of citizen participation enhance democratic legitimacy and where the limits are.
