LA - English PP - Minneapolis PB - University of Minnesota Press YR - 2012 UL - https://ebooks.jgu.edu.in/Record/jstor_eba_ocn784959319 AB - Employing policy feedback theory to a series of local government programs, Elaine B. Sharp shows that these programs do have consequences with respect to citizens' political participation. With this clear-eyed analysis, Sharp finds that local governments' social program activities actually dampen participation of the have-nots, while cities' development programs reinforce the political involvement of already-privileged business interests.
