BAEZ URBINA, Francisco. The collective, the technical and the political: some notes on the need to deliberate in the construction of the public dimension. Polis [online]. 2012, vol.11, n.32, pp.15-32. ISSN 0718-6568.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0718-65682012000200002.

This paper will attempt to argue that the process of constitutionof provision of public goods necessarily implies a problem of collective action. Inthis context, the processes of policy-making are essentially a political issue, andnot a technical one, as is promoted by neoliberalism. Thus, in aiming to bedemocratic and non-conflictive, processes must necessarily be deliberative.

Palabras clave : Collective action; public goods; urban social movements; deliberative democracy.
