  STATE AUTONOMY AND POPULAR PARTICIPATION
 
 
Title: STATE AUTONOMY AND POPULAR PARTICIPATION
Author: Shefter, Martin
Appeared in: Critical review
Paging: Volume 19 (2007) nr. 1 pages 181-186
Year: 2007-01
Contents: The argument that the modern democratic state is fairly autonomous, because mass publics have limited knowledge of government and limited interest in politics, ignores the full range of possibilities. The character of a nation's parties and other political institutions greatly affects the extent of political participation among even citizens who are well informed and concerned about public affairs. And under appropriate conditions, the mobilization and enthusiastic engagement of the public will actually increase state power.
