A series of contributions from members of the MacArthur Foundation Research Network on Opening Governance posted to the Washington Post Monkey Cage blog explores issues of opening governance in the 21st Century. The pieces explore current events through the lens of the Network’s research agenda, which studies what happens when governments and institutions open themselves to diverse participation, pursue collaborative problem-solving, and seek input and expertise from a range of people. The views expressed in the columns do not reflect the views of the Foundation or the broader Research Network.
