Jo Jae-hak: Democracy for All: Stories of Participatory Budgeting, Local Autonomy, and Decentralization

Is democracy the best political system we have? Is it just a dream that civility can be reflected better in policy, that the nation can exercise true sovereignty as well as elections? Since 1997, the author of 24 years of local activities, including civil government, participation budgets, concerts, community communities, volunteer work, civil education, and social economy, has had a dream in this book: Democracy for All. The book was written based on the experience of the site that was created with the residents. But it's not a return, it'll be a future. It deals with a variety of areas and has an integrated perspective and a political approach. The love of various activities created the key problem that we felt on the scene. The idea is to try and solve problems, especially in the presence of the people who are the agents of the work rather than in the eyes of activists or experts. We're going to focus on the change in people, but also the problems of institutions and politics. Because they believe that social change and development is achieved by complex correlations between people and institutions and politics. It is hoped that the book will help the sovereign people to seek out the possibility of a better democracy, of ‘the democracy of all’s ’ to become true masters.
