Prominent weblogger Johnnie Moore has commented on the IAP2 Spectrum adding onto Sean Howard's perspective on it as a tool by saying it is really going the wrong way. But is it a chicken or the egg phenomena? Dr Lyn Carson from the University of Sydney interviewed Larry Susskind on this very topic in a recent edition of the IAP2 Journal of Public Participation. In this article Larry posits the demands in the field to: base recommendations of particular forms of engagement on evidence; justify recommendations and reasonableness of purported outcomes from following them and to deepen the commitment to deliberative democracy wherever we work. Have a read of what Johnnie, Sean and Larry have to say and see where you sit on the Spectrum.
