Abstract
As the fall local government budget season comes up, Sunil Dasgupta talks with author Celina Su, professor of political science at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, and Brooklyn College, about her new book Budget Justice: On Building Grassroots Politics and Solidarities (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXYB8K8P?ref=cm_sw_r_ffobk_cp_ud_dp_10HCHFRWJJD443Z3YWWS&ref_=cm_sw_r_ffobk_cp_ud_dp_10HCHFRWJJD443Z3YWWS&social_share=cm_sw_r_ffobk_cp_ud_dp_10HCHFRWJJD443Z3YWWS&bestFormat=true), where she uses the experience of participatory budgeting in New York, Barcelona, and Porto Alegre, Brazil, to create a different vision of the budget process and of democracy itself.
