Notes
1 This proposal refers to a tax on currency trades as a way to discourage speculative trading or, as it is often referred to, putting ‘sand in the wheels of capitalism’.

3 Within the UK, the University of Bradford's International Centre for Participation Studies (http://www.bradford.ac.uk/research/icps/) documents much practice in this area. Furthermore, a participatory budgeting initiative is currently underway in Leith, in the city of Edinburgh.
4 Cabannes (Citation2015, 14) makes a similar point, quoting research participants: ‘If these processes did not exist, particular needs would never be taken into account [and separately] … they are worthwhile for the changes they bring, we cannot assess the financial volume only through mathematical lenses, as the impact is qualitative.’
