Opis: Smart Citizens, Smarter State - Beth Simone Noveck

Governments make too little use of the skills and experience of citizens. New tools-what Beth Simone Noveck calls technologies of expertise-are making it possible to match citizen expertise to the demand for it in government. She offers a vision of participatory democracy rooted not in voting or crowdsourcing but in people's knowledge and know-how. The ultimate goal of "Smart Citizens, Smarter State "is not simply a more competent regulatory state, but a transformed relationship between government and the governed. To policymakers and bureaucrats, Noveck makes the case that soliciting citizen expertise can make governance more effective; to democratic theorists, Noveck argues that providing expertise is a genuine form of civic engagement The strongest characteristic of "Smart Citizens, Smarter State "is its intellectually modest approach: It builds on existing programs, can be scaled up quickly or slowly, and is predicated on experimentation rather than centralized decision-making. That makes it a great reform agenda for those who have been burned by sweeping overhauls and grandiose promises before.--Andrew Mayersohn"Boston Review" (10/06/2015)"
