Taking the participatory budgeting project on disability employment promotion as an example, this study aims at illuminating the concept of enclave deliberation. By adopting enclave deliberation, people with similar characteristics or social positions were encouraged to participate more due to a sense of equality based on the similarities. Although the participants simultaneously comprehended the differences among them, they were still able to build group identity and form consensus on policy needs through deliberation. Unlike some arguments, enclave deliberation does not result in opinion polarization. Meanwhile, whereas the presence of policy subjects did improve the social impression, and status also partially changed the power relationships between the disabled, non-profit organizations on welfare, and public sectors, this single PB project still could not transform the existing structures entirely. Future studies should investigate how enclave deliberation can bring marginal groups’ opinions into the decision-making process and fulfill the inclusion and equality principles more properly. |
