“Participation and Democratic Theory (1970) argued that elitist theories of democracy rest on an inadequate reading of earlier democratic theorists and ignore sociological evidence; drawing on Rousseau, J. S. Mill and G. D. H. Cole, it devotes chapters to political efficacy and participation in the workplace, democracy in industry and Yugoslav workers' self-management.”
