Deliberative Children in Democracy
by Kei Nishiyama
Published on 2018 by

The central topic of this thesis is children's participation in democracy. The thesisproblematises the pervasive understanding of children conceptualised as |future|citizens, and redefines children's democratic potential from the perspective ofdeliberative democracy.The thesis shows that the existing literature on children's democratic participation relieson a narrow conception of an adult-initiated and forum-based participation and pays onlya limited attention to children's participation happening outside the forum. This thesisoffers a critical expansion of this view by focusing on children's deliberative activities invarious other spaces including classrooms, schools, and streets. Although these spaceshave generally been considered as non-deliberative or non-participatory spaces, the recentinnovations taking place in these spaces (e.g. new deliberative curriculum, new form ofteenage protests) invite us to re-evaluate their democratic potential. The thesis offers onesuch evaluation by using interpretive research methods and the |deliberative systems|framework. It explores the ways in which children engage in deliberative activities inclassrooms, schools, and streets.Empirically, the thesis draws on a variety of case studies from Japan, including the casesof classroom deliberation (Philosophy for Children) as practiced in two private schoolsin Japan, various activities of deliberation taking place in and beyond schools (The FutureTalk, Ari to Pla), and the contemporary case of teenage protests (T-ns SOWL). Bymapping and analysing children's different activities in these spaces, the thesis revealsthe crucial role children play in facilitating inclusion in public space, triggeringdeliberation across society, and creating a democratic community in their lives. On thebasis of the in-depth analysis of various case studies, the thesis suggests redefining andunderstanding children as deliberators in deliberative systems. The thesis concludes byproviding empirically-grounded normative insights and recommendations about howdeliberative democracy, children's democratic participation, and democratic educationcan and should be designed and practiced in contemporary societies.
