Abstract

The papers in this panel provide a wide sweep of themes relating to the wider impacts of democratic innovations. They include the following topics: an analysis of the use of citizens’ initiatives in Council of Europe states over the past few decades; the use of data derived from UK twitter feed to examine the effectiveness of protests in shifting public discourse; a mixed-methods study from Iran of how reforms of food and energy subsidies can trigger civil unrest; and an analysis of how efforts by the international community to empower the youth in the MENA region had the unintended consequence of elevating levels of youth cynicism and disengagement in the region.
