Riassunto

Citizen participation in such complex issues as the quality of the environment,neighborhood housing, urban design, and economic development often brings with it suspicion ofgovernment, anger between stakeholders, and power plays by many--as well as appeals to rationalargument. Deliberative planning practice in these contexts takes political vision and pragmaticskill. Working from the accounts of practitioners in urban and rural settings, North and South, JohnForester shows how skillful deliberative practices can facilitate practical and timely participatoryplanning processes. In so doing, he provides a window onto the wider world of democratic governance,participation, and practical decisionmaking. Integrating interpretation and theoretical insight withdiverse accounts of practice, Forester draws on political science, law, philosophy, literature, andplanning to explore the challenges and possibilities of deliberative practice.
