Abstract:
|
We recently argued that norms of transparency and participation are democratizing various international institutions and regimes. These norms foster public debate and accountability and arguably help these institutions overcome the deficit of democracy. Policy measures employed in the war on terror have apparently made it more difficult for non-state actors to participate in global politics, partly because of the increased secrecy states have embraced to assure security. In this paper, we examine the latest procedural developments in various issue areas (such as human rights, security, and economics) in order to evaluate whether norms of transparency and participation are being rejected. Have states acted to restrict access to, and information about, global policymaking? Is global democratization threatened by the war on terror? |

| Has the War on Terror Undermined Global Democracy? By Rodger A. Payne and Nayef H. Samhat ISA March 2005 Honolulu HI In March 2004 we published a book examining what we saw as the ongoing democratization of global politics (Payne and Samhat 2004). We studied a wide variety of international regimes and institutions including some pertaining to development environment human rights security and trade and found them to be far from democratic. However we also unearthed fairly strong evidence |
