Book excerpt: "It is no accident that the series Another City is Possible: Alternatives to the City as a Commodity is launched with a first volume on participatory budgeting. Implemented in over 2000 cities across the world, the democratisation of municipal finances is the practice that best complements the plethora of other alternatives to radically transform our cities. To this end, the editors Yves Cabannes and Cecilia Delgado, seasoned experts in the field, lead us across five continents to the front lines of participatory budgeting, unpacking the successes and challenges of various case studies. Written in an accessible style, providing up-to-date resources across multiple languages and animated throughout with full colour images and graphs, this book belongs in the hands of students and scholars alike. It is also useful for academic fields as diverse as economics, urbanism, sociology, political science, management and public administration."--
