Du Bois was writing in the aftermath of the first reconstruction that saw the institutionalization of Jim Crow and white dominance across the South. This period was symbolized by the infamous Plessy v. Ferguson decision in 1896. It was also marked by the capitulation of white Republican custodians of Reconstruction to the racist demands of southern politics, including the massive ejection of Black politicians from public office, …

The Right Of Participation In Development Projects, Celia R. Taylor Jan 1994

The Right Of Participation In Development Projects, Celia R. Taylor

Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship

The concept of popular participation is "the principal means by which individuals and peoples collectively determine their needs and priorities and ensure the protection and advancement of their rights and interests." In the context of political and civil rights, popular participation encourages involvement in the formation and conduct of political institutions on all levels, as proponents of the burgeoning "govemance" movement recognize.
