It finds that participatory institutions are more likely to stick when bundled into broad policy reforms that challenge the status quo and mobilize unexpected coalitions. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                                                            \u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\\n                              \u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 322 pages\u003cbr\u003e\\n                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 22 July 2021\u003cbr\u003e\\n                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile previous studies have demonstrated the significance of participatory institutions in strengthening civil society and enhancing policy outcomes, we have a limited understanding of why some participatory institutions succeed while others fail. This book aims to shed light on the divergent trajectories of nationally mandated participatory institutions by highlighting the powerful and lasting impacts of their origins in different policy-reform projects.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMayka contends that participatory institutions take root when they are bundled into comprehensive policy reforms that challenge the existing status quo and mobilize unexpected coalitions in support of participatory institution-building. In contrast, participatory institutions created through reforms focused on deepening democracy are vulnerable to dismantling and marginalization by entrenched interests.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBuilding Participatory Institutions in Latin America offers a comprehensive analysis of participatory institutions in Brazil and Colombia across three policy areas, providing the first cross-national comparative study of participatory institutions mandated at the national level. Through rich case studies and empirical evidence, the book explores the factors that contribute to the success and sustainability of participatory institutions, as well as the challenges and barriers they face.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book argues that the success of participatory institutions is influenced by a range of factors, including the political context, the level of institutional capacity, the design and implementation of participatory processes, and the level of support and opposition from different stakeholders. It also highlights the importance of building strong partnerships between government, civil society organizations, and other stakeholders to ensure the long-term viability and impact of participatory institutions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn conclusion, Building Participatory Institutions in Latin America provides valuable insights into the dynamics and challenges of participatory institution-building in the region. By exploring the origins and trajectories of nationally mandated participatory institutions, the book offers a framework for policymakers and practitioners to design and implement effective participatory institutions that can strengthen civil society, promote policy outcomes, and contribute to sustainable development in Latin America and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 472g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 152 x 228 x 21 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781108456760\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LindsayMayka","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44094983766266,"sku":"9781108456760","price":30.46,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/9750c3d06a0734b415215a183381f740.jpg?v=1634093393","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/building-participatory-institutions-in-latin-america-reform-coalitions-and-institutional-change-1","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
