"In the pursuit of progress, citizens are typically invited to engage in a process that is fundamentally broken: rather than being asked to contribute to incremental change at the neighborhood or block level, residents are asked to react to proposals that are often conceived for interests disconnected from their own, and at a scale for which they have little control. In the pursuit of resilient neighborhoods, cities, and metropolitan regions, surmounting the challenges inherent to this “public” process continues to prove difficult. Fortunately, alternative tactics are available and ready for deployment."
