Participatory planning has faced challenges engaging predominantly Spanish-speaking immigrants beyond the bottom rungs of Arnstein’s ladder of citizen participation. Participating at any level of the ladder requires individual civic skills, or capacities, that are integral to participatory processes. However, the specific skills necessary for collective action are less certain, due in part to a lack of clear definitions and a lack of clarity about how these capacities work in practice. Drawing on two years of data from a participatory budgeting process in an immigrant community in Chicago, Illinois, the authors identify key civic capacities that Spanish-speaking immigrants activated while engaging in civic discourse, and they explore the role these capacities played in moving ideas toward collective decision making. The authors present an organizational schema that aligns the study’s findings of 17 unique civic capacities with capacities identified in the literature as helping participants engage more meaningfully in decision-making processes.

Participatory budgeting is described as a direct-democracy approach to resource allocation decision making. Theories assume it changes how public resources are spent by moving decisions from elected officials to citizens. The literature does not consider how earmarking—in which legislators direct parts of public budgets directly—might affect the impact of such policy devices. New York City’s participatory budgeting process which uses earmarks is analyzed to determine spending changes. Officials involved fund more projects at lower average amounts than those not involved but do not change the areas of funding, all of which is expected in systems of budgetary earmarks controlled by legislators.

Abstract. Good participatory budgeting will create a sense of justice that can make a person more committed and improve his performance. Reform in the field of state finance raises efforts to improve the public sector budgeting process with the implementation of performance-based budgeting. Participatory budgeting through fairness perceptions and organizational commitment is one of the factors for improving performance in the decentralized Ministry of Religious Affairs of North Sulawesi Province. The purpose of this research is to know the effect of participative budgeting on managerial performance either directly or indirectly by using perception of justice and organizational commitment as mediation variable as well as decentralization as moderation variable at Ministry of Religion of North Sulawesi Province. Instrument in this research is questionnaire with scale likert 1-5 and processed using program SPSS version 23. Analysis method used is Path Analysis to test indirect influence and residual test to test moderation variable. The results show that the perception of justice mediates the influence between participatory budgeting on managerial performance, and organizational commitment mediates the effect of participatory budgeting on managerial performance. While the decentralization variable does not moderate the influence between participative budgeting on managerial performance. This means that an increase in participatory budgeting will affect the improvement of managerial performance either directly or indirectly with the perception of justice and organizational commitment at the Ministry of Religious Affairs of North Sulawesi Province.               Keywords: Participatory Budgeting, Justice Perception, Organizational Commitment, Decentralization, Managerial Performance.Abstrak.

Touted as a means to extend democracy to previously disenfranchised people, participatory budgeting actually covers a variety of motivations and effects. This article explores diverse reactions and meanings through a case study of the Peruvian peasant community of Allpalumichico. Although the economic system embedded in the legal requirements of the Peruvian participatory budgeting process derives from the global neoliberal agenda, the actual practices also reflect the personal and political strategies of local and national politicians. At the same time, the citizen participants and beneficiaries of the process understand it on their own terms. Despite both the decline of the peasant community as an institution and the increasing heterogeneity of the residents, collective norms of resource distribution continue to inform how allpalumichiqueños engage in participatory budgeting decisions. This collective sense of community could be the basis for much more organic and relevant forms of participatory budgeting.
