“我们现在都是民主党人了，”约翰·邓恩（John Dunn）在1979年对《西方政治理论》（Western Political Theory）的评论中讽刺地写道。25年过去了，以人为本的治理的民主伦理已经获得了一个神圣图腾的地位，它的服从远远超出了正式政治的竞技场。因此，从社区学校董事会到多边机构，各种仪式和象征性的参与行为已经被“主流化”。虽然它们的形式和实践非常不同，但承诺是相似的。扩大参与将意味着政策制定、行政管理和研究的过程变得更具包容性、更具响应性、更公平，从而更充分地代表他们声称要服务的“人民”的利益。
‘We are all democrats now,’ wrote John Dunn ironically in his 1979 review of Western Political Theory (Dunn 1979). Twenty-five years on, the democratic ethic of people centred governance has acquired the status of a sacred totem that commands obeisance far beyond the arena of formal politics. Rites and symbolic acts of participation have accordingly been ‘mainstreamed’ across a remarkable range of institutions, from neighbourhood school boards to multilateral agencies. Though very different in their form and practice, the promise is similar. Incorporating participation will mean that processes of policy making, administration and research become more inclusive, more responsive, more equitable, and so represent more fully the interests of ‘the people’ they claim to serve.
