Roundtable: New directions in democratic innovations

Abstract

This roundtable discusses three recently published/forthcoming books on democratic innovations and political participation. The three books featured in this roundtable approach the broader topic “democratic innovations” from different theoretical-conceptual and methodological viewpoints. The authors will introduce their novel approaches to theorizing and researching democratic innovations and engage in a cross-fertilizing debate that presents the current state of the art and at the same time opens the view for future directions in the field.
