Factors of Participatory Urban Policy: Urban Activism through the prism of Post-materialistic Theory
Abstract
Article “Factors of Participatory Urban Policy: Urban activism through the prism of Post-materialistic Theory”, through the prism of Post-materialistic theory analyses data’s of Georgia accumulated during the 5th and 6th waves of World Value Survey (WVS) and studies how materialistic values of the societies are changing and becoming post-materialistic. The main focus is on public participation in city government and especially on urban activism. As, in Georgian reality, green activism is the main form of activism, article questions either it is the reaction on numbers of ecological and urban problems that appeared in Tbilisi during last 10 years, or still it is a sign of shifting materialistic Georgian society into the side of post-materialistic values.References
