- "While the notion of Local Government remains contentious in literature, consensus appears to be that it brings government nearer to the people. The book discusses operations of the Local Government system in Uganda in the context of social accountability as a tool for deepening democracy. Using ACODE?s social accountability strategies like local government council scorecards, civic engagement meetings and technology, the book examines roles that citizens and the civil society play in solving capacity problems. The book contends that functional decentralization empowers Local Governments, improves service delivery and fosters citizens? eagerness to demand accountability."

- Turkey has always played an important role in European history. Since 1959 Turkey has been patiently knocking on the door only to be told politely to keep waiting, watching latecomer after latecomer being invited in successive waves of accession, leaving Turkey behind. The Helsinki Summit in 1999 was however a turning point and finally after many ups and downs negotiations on membership could start in October 2005. One complicated question concerning the negotiations on Turkish membership of the EU is related to intensive debates in many of the existing EU Member States about whether, given Turkeys Muslim heritage, it could really be considered as a European country and hence whether in reality it has a right to membership as the ultimate objective of the negotiations. Another issue concerns the internal political situation in Turkey, where AKP, whose commitment to secularism is contested, has been in power since its electoral victory in 2002, as well as the constitutional tension during 2007 and 2008 which have a bearing on a series of interesting politological questions such as politics and religion, identity, democratisation, modernisation and globalisation. In truth the slow negotiations between Turkey and the EU is a real test for both actors, in a way a battle for Turkeys as well as for Europes soul. The contributions in this volume by highly experienced authors and scholars offer a broad and initiated insight into understanding this complex and fascinating candidate country Muslim and secular, European and Asian, democratic and authoritarian at the same time from a historical as well as from a modern perspective.

- This book examines the role of policy expertise in a democratic society. From the perspectives of both political theory and policy studies, the chapters explore the implications of deliberative democratic governance for professional expertise and extend them to specific policy practices. The discussion focuses in particular on the ways professional practices might be reoriented to assist citizens in understanding and discussing the complex policy issues of an advanced technological society. In doing so, it also explores how public deliberation can be improved through more cooperative forms of policy inquiry. Adopting a deliberative-analytic approach, policy inquiry is grounded in a postempiricist, constructivist understanding of inquiry and knowledge and the participatory practices that support it. Toward this end, the chapters draw on thriving theoretical and practical work dedicated to revitalizing the citizen's role in both civil society and newer practices of democratic governance, in particular deliberative democracy in political theory, practical work with deliberative experiments, the theory and practices of democratic governance, and participatory research. Deliberative practices are promoted here as a new component part of policy-related disciplines required for participatory governance. Calling for a specialization of 'policy epistemics' to advance such practices, the second half of the book takes up issues related to deliberative empowerment, including the relation of technical and social knowledge, the interpretive dimensions of social meaning and multiple realities, the role of narrative knowledge and storylines policy inquiry, social learning, tacit knowledge, the design of discursive spaces, and the place of emotional expression in public deliberation.
