SOC189K PO - Globalizing Participation: Citizens Engaging the State around the WorldWhen Offered: One-time only; spring 2021.
Instructor(s): E. Hernandez
Credit: 1
In this class, students will learn about the institutional innovations public officials and historically marginalized groups (women, people of color, members of the LGBTI community, migrants and their descendants, low-income groups, and others) have come up with in order to make public policies more inclusive around the world. A particular emphasis will be given to countries from the Global South, where most of these innovations are being created. Although Participatory Budgeting (PB) is the most famous of these innovations, the class will critically examine PB and many others as well as the multiple ways in which they have become globalized as different actors share them and/or transform them into international best practices. Letter grade only.
