Beyond Instrumentalised Politics : Re-Conceptualising Public Governance

Abstract

Typically, innovation in public governance is limited to reforming existing institutions. Beyond Instrumentalised Politics characterises a novel political system. It articulates the evaluative principles required for politics that considers all people to be of equal value rather than dehumanising them. Such a system, this book argues, should be a participatory democracy, and it outlines how this should function in practice.
