Government is Us 2.0

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

When this seminal work was originally published the focus was on whether or not citizens should be involved in administrative governance. Government Is Us 2.0 picks up where the original edition left off and addresses the bigger questions being discussed today about the relationship among and between citizens and their governments, how individuals and agencies govern, and how to deal with the institutional elements that keep us from engendering long-term, socially just particpatory change.
