Placing such participation at the heart of discussion around global politics, policy and technological innovation, this comprehensive handbook explores key questions pivotal to the democratic project: who gets to participate, how can we challenge participation’s subversion, whose voices are being excluded and how can participation be renewed and extended for sustainable futures? \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Drawing on a wealth of interdisciplinary experience in participatory scholarship and activism, the editors and contributors embody and engage in an inclusive pedagogy of participation in creating this handbook. With a shared collective vision towards the necessary de‑centring of legitimised knowledge systems, they centre the voices of activists, service users and carers, and early‑career and established academics who speak in concert on issues of global importance. Bringing together the politics of participation in the widest possible framework, the book explores academic approaches to public participation; participatory research and evaluation; decolonising participation; participation in action; new populisms, participation and politics; participatory epistemology; participatory policy and governance; new technologies; and communication and participation. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e This handbook will serve as a key resource and reference point for interdisciplinary audiences as well as targeted sub‑fields including Politics and International Relations, Sociology, Migration Studies, Social Movement Studies, Gender and Sexuality Studies, Ageing Studies, Mad and Disability Studies, Health and Social Care, Education Studies, Social Work, Service User Involvement and Citizenship Studies, Global Social Policy, Development and Peace Studies, Affect Studies, and Digital Culture and Media Studies.
