Democratic practices - participation, citizenship rights, and an inclusionary state - enhance human development. The book uncovers how local democratic governance improves well-being, related to poverty, health, women's empowerment, and education. Municipalities that invest in democracy attain greater human development. Commitments to democracy thus have real consequences for citizens.
