Local participation is the new democratic imperative. In the United States, three-fourths of all cities have developed opportunities for citizen involvement in strategic planning. The World Bank has invested $85 billion over the last decade to support community participation worldwide. But even as these opportunities have become more popular, many contend that they have also become less connected to actual centers of power and the jurisdictions where issues relevant to communities are decided. With this book, Gianpaolo Baiocchi and Ernesto Ganuza consider the opportunities and challenges of democratic participation. Examining how one mechanism of participation has traveled the world—with its inception in Porto Alegre, Brazil, and spread to Europe and North America—they show how participatory instruments have become more focused on the formation of public opinion and are far less attentive to, or able to influence, actual reform. Though the current impact and benefit of participatory forms of government is far more ambiguous than its advocates would suggest, Popular Democracy concludes with suggestions of how participation could better achieve its political ideals.

El desgaste y el deterioro de la política desde la perspectiva de la ciudadanía han incrementado las preguntas sobre la mejor forma de hacer política. Las políticas públicas hoy en día parecen incapaces de repensarse, ni siquiera frente a un desafío como el de la pandemia del COVID-19. Solemos pensar que políticamente no hay muchas alternativas a lo que tenemos hoy. Nos hemos acostumbrado a entender la democracia solo mediante los partidos que cualquier otra alternativa suena fantasiosa. La solución, por supuesto, no es fácil. Sin embargo, desde hace algunos años estamos asistiendo a la puesta en marcha de mecanismos políticos que proponen una salida distinta y que permiten pensar, desde una perspectiva renovada, esas tensiones que azotan regularmente la democracia.Este libro pretende mostrar de qué manera el sorteo y la deliberación pueden jugar un papel destacado en las instituciones políticas de hoy y de mañana. Veremos cómo se emplean para tomar, en la actualidad, decisiones importantes en muchos lugares del mundo y que fueron también herramientas usadas en momentos históricos. El sorteo y la deliberación pueden aportar un elemento de equilibrio a la tensión que puebla la política hoy día (entre democracia y eficiencia), pues ciertamente cualquier alternativa política tiene que ser tan eficiente como democrática en sus formas. Para repensar el mundo, necesitamos replantear nuestra forma de tomar colectivamente las decisiones que nos afectan.
