Civic Participation in Foreign and Security Policy: Motivation, Processes, Results<\/h2>\n

Project team: Anna Geis \/ Hanna Pfeifer \/ Christian Opitz<\/p>\n

Funding: HSU Internal Research Fund (IFF), July 2018-June 2019<\/p>\n

Democratic foreign and security policy (FSP) has for a long time been regarded as a domain of the executive and as hardly accessible to participation beyond regular representative, parliamentary procedures. During the last years, though, a trend has emerged in some democracies to enhance citizens\u2019 inclusion into deliberative and decision-making processes in the field of FSP. The goal of this project was to investigate the motivation, processes and results of these forms of citizen participation.<\/p>\n

How, why and for what purpose do ministries initiate participatory processes in the field of FSP?
\nWhich results emerge from different formats of participation have regarding policies, processes and institutions?
\nHow do different groups of participants, i.e. citizens, experts, stakeholders, and representatives of the executive assess the outcomes of these processes?
\nHow can such participatory processes in FSP be contextualised within democratic theory, i.e. how should they be judged regarding their normative quality, in particular the legitimacy and effectiveness of political decisions?
\nThe work of this finished IFF-Project is expanded and deepened by our follow-up DFG-Project<\/a> .<\/p>\n
