摘要

摘要参与式预算是一项受欢迎的民主创新,因为它承诺赋予传统边缘化群体权力,并创造更公平的公共支出。PB将公共权力委托给社区居民,由他们提出并决定用税款资助的项目。PB是否实现了一种授权参与式治理形式?本文利用调查和访谈数据,重点研究了PB在两个湾区城市中与边缘化群体的接触程度。我们发现,边缘化群体确实会定期参与,参与率与他们在人口中的比例相等,而且这些群体似乎偶尔会从获胜的项目中获得实质性的好处,尽管程度较小。强调了有助于取得这些成果的有效外联方法。然而,总体调查结果显示,中年白人、中产阶级群体参与最多。此外,PB基金在这两个城市的规模都有所缩减,限制了收益及其实现PB股权目标的潜力。这些结果反映了其他司法管辖区的结果。然而,我们最后讨论了PB的制度设计,如果扩大和深化,将如何提供具体的途径,在地方一级实现一种有希望的具有再分配潜力的赋权参与式治理形式。

Two Steps Forward, One Step Back: Participatory Budgeting and the Quest for Empowered Participatory Governance
Abstract Participatory Budgeting (PB) is a welcome democratic innovation because it promises to empower traditionally marginalized groups and create more equitable public spending. PB delegates public authority to neighborhood residents to propose and decide on projects to fund with tax dollars. Does PB achieve a form of empowered participatory governance? This article examines this question by focusing on the degree to which PB engages marginalized groups in two Bay Area cities, using survey and interview data. We find that marginalized groups do participate, periodically at rates equal to their proportion of the population, and such groups appear to occasionally benefit materially from winning projects, though to a lesser extent. Effective outreach methods that contribute to these outcomes are highlighted. However, overall findings show that white middle-aged, middle-class groups participate most. Moreover, PB funds have been scaled back in both cities, limiting benefits and their potential to achieve PB’s equity goals. These results mirror outcomes in other jurisdictions. We conclude, nevertheless, with discussion of how PB’s institutional design, which if expanded and deepened, provides concrete pathways to achieve a promising form of empowered participatory governance with redistributive potential at the local level.
