The Deliberative Democracy Handbook is the first of its kind bringing together the best practices on various citizen participation processes. The handbook will help readers figure out which process best suits their needs and circumstances. SCRC Executive Director Martha L. McCoy and Patrick Scully, deputy director, wrote the chapter “Study circles: Local Deliberation as the Cornerstone of Deliberative Democracy” which walks readers through the core principles of study circles, program design, applications, and challenges and opportunities.
