"To counter pervasive levels of citizen disengagement from political institutions, this book examines democratic innovations that meaningfully engage with citizens to address some the deficits of western representative democracies. Citizens' assemblies provide one such innovation, offering opportunities for more consistent participation between elections, more meaningful input in government decision making, and more impactful platforms for participation. This cutting-edge book introduces a new definition for an Activated Citizen, along with a methodology to measure civic and political engagement. Relying on a mixed-methods approach and field research conducted in Paris, Brussels, Ottawa, and Petaluma (California), as well as participant observations, over 180 surveys, 60 in-depth interviews and storytelling, the book provides case studies and in-depth analysis of hot-button topics including climate change, unhoused populations, democratic expression, assisted suicide and euthanasia. Each chapter weaves quantitative results with rich qualitative testimonies from participants, government representatives, and observers. Based on empirical evidence, the book explores the ways in which government-led citizens' assemblies can promote a more Activated Citizen. To fully realize the transformative potential of deliberative platforms, a final chapter offers a blueprint for impact, outlining concrete measures along with recommendations for the design and implementation of future government-initiated deliberative platforms. Activated Citizenship urges the deliberative community to be more discerning and intentional to more positively impact participants' knowledge, sense of community, enthusiasm, political engagement, as well as their sense of meaningful voice. It will be required reading for all students and scholars interested in political participation and democratic innovation"--

A philosophy that advocates that members of charitable organizations, companies, or nation-states have certain roles and responsibilities to society and the environment is referred to as active citizenship. It can be sighted as an articulation of the debate over rights versus responsibilities. There are two complementary aspects of citizenship: citizenship rights and active citizenship. Individual freedoms, political, civil, social, and economic rights are part of citizenship rights while active citizenship includes civic responsibility, campaigning, taking action against injustice, and holding the government accountable. The inference is that an active citizen is one who fulfills both their rights and responsibilities in a balanced way. The book studies, analyses and upholds the pillars of active citizenship and its utmost significance in modern times. It picks up individual topics and explains their need and contribution in the context of a growing economy. For all readers who are interested in active citizenship, the case studies included in this book will serve as an excellent guide to develop a comprehensive understanding.
