Trying to move from correlations of PB and desirable outcomes to an analysis of the enabling conditions that may be leading to such results, in Chapter 4 I argued that participation in PB is likely to translate into a number of good outcomes, as long as certain conditions and circumstances prevailed in the process. These conditions include fairness, inclusiveness, capacity for and actuality of effective change, deliberation, and prior cooperative group functioning. Using process tracing analysis for the PB cases of SDE and STI, I found that, in general, PB more or less increases democratic deliberation and other forms of participation but due to certain democratic deficits, PB has a mixed record withrespect to improvements in the other desired outcomes. Given case-by-case variation across assemblies regarding the presence and character of the putative conditions that would enable such valuable outcomes to be realized and until further evaluation is made about their comparability to other cases, these conclusions should not be generalized for all PB processes beyond the municipalities of SDE and STI. To address these democratic deficits and make the PB cases studied more relevant for other contexts, I make several policy recommendations, including citizen action to both incentivize informal citizen deliberation and improve the formality and democratic dimensions of PB procedures. The ultimate goal, of course, is PB assemblies that generate—or do so more fully—the desired outcomes.
