摘要
This paper examines the notion of democratic accountability through an investigation of metropolitan governance in South Hampshire, UK.

The paper highlights how accountability can be strategically deployed to accomplish and bolster diverse policy and political objectives and how these interpretations impact the quality of democratic engagement
