It examines the core design features of DMPs and their role in the broader policy process and takes stock of the characteristics that distinguish them from other forms of citizen participation. In doing so, the book offers valuable insights into the contributions that DMPs can make not only to the policy process, but also to the broader agenda of revitalising democracy in contemporary times.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"You will have difficulty finding a better source for accessible, concise, and pragmatic guidance on design of deliberative mini-publics, informed by the authors' extensive practical experience as well as their demonstrable research excellence."
