- 요약This dissertation explores the efficacy of Civic Renewal Movements (CRMs) in addressing the democratic crises in the United States, focusing on two case studies: Braver Angels and Everyday Democracy. CRMs claim to enhance democratic health by promoting skills for self-governance and addressing issues such as polarization, fragile institutions, and systemic racism through cooperative approaches. However, the dissertation argues that CRMs often fail to connect grassroots efforts with meaningful participation in public decision-making, which limits their impact. Additionally, the structural constraints of contemporary CRMs, particularly their nonpartisan and nonprofit status, hinder their ability to address systemic crises effectively. By examining the rhetoric, political ideas, and practices of the two case studies, the dissertation highlights how CRMs shape democratic engagement and influence citizens' expectations about politics.The importance of this research lies in its critical assessment of the potential and limitations of CRMs as democratic institutions face a more immediate threat in the form of rising authoritarianism. Evaluating the ways CRMs encourage democratic participation, association building, and critical thought is crucial. The dissertation underscores the need for CRMs to adopt a more robust approach that addresses power relations and material inequalities. It also emphasizes the necessity of integrating a more direct political response to confront anti-democratic threats. Ultimately, this work contributes to the broader discourse on civic renewal and democratic theory, proposing ways to enhance the impact of CRMs in fostering a more inclusive and resilient democracy.
