Recensione a N. Curato et al., Deliberative Mini-Publics: Core Design Features, Bristol University Press, 2021

In Deliberative Mini-Publics: Core Design Features i dieci coautori, tra i massimi esperti in materia di democrazia deliberativa, propongono un’analisi dei c.d. deliberative mini-publics, valorizzando gli elementi che distinguono questi ultimi dalle altre pratiche partecipative, ma non mancando altresì di vagliarne il contributo migliorativo per i processi decisionali pubblici e, più in generale, per la democrazia.
