Important people to cite (for Amercian politics, anyway) would include Sidney Verba, Kay Schlozman, Steven Rosenstone, John Mark Hansen, and Robert Putnam, to name a few. --Michael.Stone 22:33, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)

For the sake of good form I should note that the comments I added in reference to A Ladder of Citizen Participation is run by me. --DuLithgow 21:52, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I have added some other people whose definitions of participation were influenced by Arnstein's. I have no links for the articles, but if anyone does, it woul dbe wonderful to include them. The articles are famous and easy to find with a simple Google Scholar search I think.--24.18.231.242 07:34, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Political Participation[edit]

There needs to be a section on this... civics and etc. --HoO8MyRiCe

Deep Democracy[edit]

Seems to me like a new great tool... I would like to give it a chance... So could you check the website before doing a fast erase... Could you maybe advise me how to spread about the concept?..

Overlap between participation articles[edit]

I was looking at the articles on participation, and I noticed that they are not very coordinated and they overlap quite a bit. I'm starting a discussion about this at Talk:Participation#Overlap_between_participation_articles. Any help is appreciated! MakeBelieveMonster (talk) 16:27, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The EPIC Generation[edit]

This reference is a self-published book by a known self-promoting sockpuppet. I highly doubt you will find any relevant, reliable, and independently published articles by him on the subject, but if you do, please feel free to replace the reference.

Just some ideas for change:[edit]

This article has the potential to be very successful because what it is describing is political participation, however this is entirely from a Global North or Westernized perspective. It would also be important to look at the global youth and emerging adult population from not just participation from a statistical or political perspective, but to consider the sociological implications of involvement (i.e.- participation as well). For example, look into the Chavez election in Venezuela, where the NY Times declared the youth changed the election. Pull regionally, not from individual countries necessarily, and avoid the Western European countries because they have a similar perspective to that of the United States.

This article has a clear skew, but it can be fixed! Never be concerned, because this is a good start! Ask if you ever need help or anything fixing it! Jduden (talk) 17:44, 22 February 2013 (UTC)jduden[reply]


I just added a section to this page, addressing participation beyond the economic,political, & management domains mentioned in the overall definition. Cultural was left out and so some addition of Indigenous American Cultures as inputted to add some variety and out look. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Risilva (talkcontribs) 03:04, 9 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Relevance[edit]

I believe that this article could use an update of material and include several, far more recent examples and events of appropriate material. Sources could be updated as many more academic publishings have been released and highly touted. ~~~~~ PeterStyx (talk) 15:59, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
