Abstract

In Democracy in a Pandemic – available open access – Graham Smith and Tim Hughes with Lizzie Adams and Charlotte Obijiaku explore the role that democratic participation and deliberation have played during the COVID-19 pandemic. This book not only offers valuable reflections on democracy and citizen action in a time of crisis and upheaval, but also serves as a wake-up call to question whether our traditional democratic mechanisms are sufficiently democratic at all, writes Theo Stone. Democracy in a Pandemic: Participation in Response to Crisis. Graham Smith and Tim Hughes with Lizzie Adams and Charlotte Obijiaku (eds). University of Westminster Press. 2021.
