| Description | This paper explores the shifting significance of accountability processes and why they sometimes attract considerable public attention and citizens’ involvement, whereas at other times they escape public notice. Accountability processes are conceived of as order-maintaining or order-transforming processes and I interpret the recent obsession with democratic accountability as part of a struggle over the terms of political order. This paper attends to the importance ofpolitical associationinvolving different mixes of unity/diversity, trust/mistrust, and historical experiences;political organizationand the ordering routines, ideas, and resources of different institutions; andpolitical agencyand shifting attention, zones of acceptance, and action capabilities. |
