The Five Principles of Participatory Politics
1. Investigation
"Participants seek
out, collect, and analyze
information from a wide array of
sources."
(Kahne, Middaugh, Allen,
p.55, 2015).
2. Dialogue and Feedback
"There is a high degree of dialogue
among community members, as well as a
practice of weighing in on issues of
public concern and on the decisions of
civic and political leaders."
(Kahne, Middaugh, Allen, p.55,
2015).
3. Circulation
"The flow of information is shaped
by many in the broader community
rather than by a small group of
elites."
(Kahne, Middaugh, Allen, p.55,2015).
4. Production
"Create
original content (such as
blogs or videos with political
intent or impact) that allows
them to advance their
perspectives"
(Kahne,
Middaugh, Allen, p.55, 2015).
5. Mobilization
"Members of a community rally
others to help accomplish civic or
political goals."
(Kahne,Middaugh, Allen, p.55, 2015).
