Deliberative
Integrity
What ethical dilemmas do scholars and practitioners of deliberative democracy face? How can we uphold standards of integrity when convening deliberative processes?
Defining
Deliberative
Integrity
Ethical integrity is vital to the practice of democracy, but discussions on what it takes to uphold the highest standards of integrity when convening deliberative processes have yet to take place.
This project will develop the concept of deliberative integrity through grounded empirical research with academics and practitioners, advocates, and critics of deliberative democracy.
