Rezensionen

The book opens new directions for future research as it pushes the reader to think further. The acknowledgement by the authors of the diversity of deliberative practices will also have larger implications at a theoretical level of democracy. The purpose of deliberative democracy is to allow citizens to have an active role within the political process, and that can be achieved by developing a renewed approach to understanding the social, political, economic and cultural aspects of their countries. Therefore, deliberative democracy in Asia is an invaluable contribution to the discipline of political science and political theory overall. - Ekta Shaikh, University of Delhi, India in Asian Studies Review
