“…According to Hendriks and Lees Marshment (2019), political leaders prefer informal channels to formal participatory instruments and the main reasons of political leaders to support public participation are related to collecting information, connecting with real people, checking the feasibility of new policies, and aiding policy implementation. Mostly consultation and co-governance initiatives are likely to find favor with local politicians (Mckenna 2012) and the main argument for using participatory devices is that they reinforce political leaders' role as the central decision-makers (Schiffino et al 2019). Yet little attention is paid to the fact that the involvement of lay citizens in the decision-making process can potentially restrict the autonomy of political leaders (Macq and Jacquet 2020).…”

“…Stacey (2013) has made the case for using the approach to assess French political leaders. McKenna (2012) argues that Bulpitt’s statecraft concepts can be applied to local government. Savitch and Osgood (2010) used Bulpitt’s earlier work on territorial relations to understand urban policy in the US.…”

“…James (2012) uses it as a framework for identifying the causes of reform of electoral institutions in a comparative perspective. McKenna (2012) uses his local model to understand regularities in local elite behaviour towards participatory initiatives. The second wave of literature therefore consolidates Bulpitt’s differences with Cowling, who was not interested in developing such theoretical extrapolations.…”

“…Die Zahl bisheriger Studien zur Einstellung von lokalen politischen Eliten wie Gemeinderatsmitgliedern und Bürgermeister*innen zu den unterschiedlichen Formen von Bürgerbeteiligung ist recht übersichtlich. Wie in der Literatur zur allgemeinen Einstellungsforschung lokaler politischer Eliten konzentrieren sich die Autor*innen auch hier auf eine Kombination von individuellen und kontextuellen Erklärungsfaktoren und bestätigen grundsätzlich vor allem die Kombination aus individuellen Faktoren wie der Parteizugehörigkeit, aber auch sozialstrukturellen und zuletzt auch stärker mandatsbezogene Faktoren als einflussreich (siehe zumBeispiel Karlsson 2012;Mckenna 2012;Heinelt 2013c;Egner et al 2013b;Gabriel und Kersting 2014;Kersting und Schneider 2016;Vetter 2017;Ruf et al 2019; Wagschal et al 2019). 3 …”
