The Association for the Taxation of Financial Transactions and Citizens Action in Italy and Quebec

Apart from providing a discussion of what political culture might mean, this book speaks of the way two twin social movement organisationsone in Italy and another in Quebecusually make decisions. Independently from someones political position, the decision-making process that these two organisations have adopted is helpful in suggesting ways to decide collectively which paths are more inclusive and can reduce any conflict and improve participation. This book will appeal to not only academics, but also policymakers, trade-unions, and practitioners, as well as anyone who wishes to improve recognition and therefore participation. The consensual decision-making adopted by these organisations represents a clear democratic approach in making decisions, and suggests a way to open the doors to those not yet included in these groups.
