"Democracy is in crisis because today’s governments largely fail to capitalize on their greatest untapped resource : the collective intelligence of their citizens. The cases in this book show the way to the smarter, more open democracy that humanity deserves."Helene Landemore, Yale University, author of Democratic Reason (2013) and Open Democracy (2020)"None of this century’s hardest problems will be solved by a single stroke of genius -- rather, we can only make progress by inventing new and better forms of collaboration. This book gives an essential guide to our emerging field."Thomas Malone, Founder, MIT Center for Collective Intelligence"Addressing the crises of the new world requires new tools based on the transformative participation of connected local communities on a South/South and not just North/South basis. This book feeds into such governance perspectives that can be one of the remedies to the most serious crisis: the crisis of trust in institutions."Isabelle Durant, Former Deputy Prime Minister of Belgium, Vice-President of the European Parliament and Deputy Secretary General of UNCTAD."The Routledge Handbook fills a gap in an emerging literature on collective intelligence and public innovation as a process of finding new way to provide people with public goods. This long-awaited book with a comprehensive view of the most sophisticated analyses, concepts and methodologies in the field."Florent Parmentier, Sciences Po, France"The extent of the movement toward deliberative democracy has been poorly understood until now. The Routledge Handbook of Collective Intelligence for Democracy and Governance enhances our understanding of the breadth of activity across geographies and social institutions, while providing a valuable resource for insights from a host of experiments in collective intelligence."Dawn Nakagawa, Executive Vice President of the Berggruen Institute, USA"A key challenge presented in The Routledge Handbook of Collective Intelligence for Democracy & Governance, that of moving from the individual knowledge society to one that elicits the collective intelligence of all citizens, might be the greatest area of potential impact for democracy and governance today."Andy E. Williams, Founder, Executive Director, Nobeah Technologies Foundation, Nairobi, Kenya
