The articles raise concerns about the relationship between democracy and public culture and how it is influenced by the participatory agenda. What stands out is a perception of the participatory agenda itself as an “entangled” policy composed of different, more or less correlated means within a widened, liberal policy field that accommodates paradoxes and therefore also interventions.

Accounting for culture: Thinking through cultural citizenship, 2005

Culture is very much the home patch of us content proselytizers–where many of us grew up intellectually and feel most comfortable. It has been around as a fundamental rationale for government's interest in regulation and subsidy for decades.
