Reviews

"""Children, Democracy, and Education significantly expands the scope of deliberative democracy research by shedding light on children. Through careful examination of previous deliberative democracy research and educational theory, and fieldwork in Japan and Australia, Nishiyama ambitiously revises important concepts and theories in deliberative democracy and, in some cases, proposes new concepts. Children are reconsidered not as future citizens to be educated but as deliberators in the present. Deliberative democracy exists not only within the confines of the state or mini-publics but also within everyday life such as schools and streets. Thus, this book represents a significant challenge to deliberative democracy theories that predominantly focus on adults and the state or government."" — Tetsuki Tamura, Graduate School of Law, Nagoya University"
