This Week’s Theme: Civic Engagement

We’ll be spotlighting voices drawn from the online dialogs on Civic Engagement conducted earlier this month as part of the MacArthur Series.

Welcome to this week’s focus on Civic Engagement.  (Last week Tara McPherson spotlighted Unexpected Outcomes.)

For an introduction to the topic, I’ve posted an introduction to civic engagement on this site.  And as always, check out our content stream on civic engagement on this site, and the list of authors on the Civic Engagement volume page for the MacSeries.

Most importantly, keep checking this blog the rest of this week as we spotlight several important voices on this vital topic. We’re already expecting posts from Zephyr Teachout, Michael X. Delli Carpini, Marina Bers, Howard Rheingold, Kate Raynes-Goldie, Cathy Davidson, and Luke Walker.
