Description |
It was aspired to analyze the theoretical foundation of public participation invoking different theories explaining this phenomenon. Theses involve the most widely used theories as: Theory of Social Capital – because it is still the most popular foundation in solving participation problems; Rational Choice theory – because it has not only features of universal theory, but is successfully used in all behaviour sciences, and certainly explains measuring process (what it is the base of decision assumption in any individuals activity, in participation as well) of participation’s benefit and loss; Theory of Democracy – because it is treated as an essential assumption, the foundation to the further construct analyze and practical realization of participating ideas. Such an approach was taken, because there is no only one universal theory explaining the phenomenon of participation involving different attitudes. There are chosen different theories depending on context. Authors do not intend to generate such a theory, this is just assay to discuss the main theories, often over-passing limits of the other one, identifying problems, which hinder to shape an universal theory of participant foundation. There is confined from comprehensive public or participant concepts’ operationalization.
Straipsnyje analizuojami visuomenės dalyvavimo teoriniai pagrindai, pasitelkiant plačiausiai naudojamas šį fenomeną aiškinančias socialinio kapitalo, racionalaus pasirinkimo ir demokratijos teorijas. Tokia prieiga pasirinkta todėl, kad nėra vienos universalios dalyvavimo reiškinį aiškinančios teorijos, kuri jungtų skirtingus požiūrius. Priklausomai nuo konteksto, pasitelkiamos skirtingos teorijos. Šio straipsnio autoriai nepretenduoja tokią teoriją sukurti, tai tik bandymas aptarti pagrindines, dažnai vienos disciplinos ribas peržengiančias teorijas, įvardijant problemas, kurios trukdo suformuluoti universalų dalyvavimo teorinį pagrindą. |
