The opening of access to education for all citizens is a conditio sine qua non value of freedom and justice. As long as there are citizens who cannot get access to education, even though at the most basic level, the state is the agency most responsible for this injustice. Without the guarantee of these basic needs, citizen participation in a democratic climate that allows for upward social movements to be far from expectations The elimination of discrimination should be done by providing the widest opportunity for every citizen to get an education, so that cheap schools, even free, will be created for all the people without exception. Therefore the government is required to be able to be fair by providing equal opportunities for every citizen to take education (formal) and be able to protect and guarantee the rights of citizens, especially for those who are financially incapable so that they can continue to receive proper education.

Citizen participation on any level of government is timeless. The dynamics and the relationships of citizen participation on all levels are unique, due to the fact that many problems and solutions have their roots in the activities of local government and its administration. Furthermore the extension of democracy to all spheres of society and to all tiers of the administrative hierarchy, have been a central theme of the democratisation process in South Africa. The notion of "bringing the government to the people" is important, not only in strengthening civil society, but also in mobilising the population to implement the programmes of reconstruction and development necessary to transform the civil society.

<p><em>Zakat is a property that must be set aside by a Muslim or an entity that is owned by Muslims in accordance with the provisions of religion to be given to those who are entitled to receive it.<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: medium;"> Zakat should be managed properly and professionally, so that the benefits of zakat can prosper the people and can alleviate poverty and can turn mustahik into muzakki. In Indonesia, the government has made several regulations on zakat, namely with the enactment of Law number 38 of 1999 concerning the management of Zakat and has been revised by Law No. 23 of 2011. In the Law that carries out zakat management are institutions officially recognized by the government. These institutions are BAZNAS and LAZ.

It has been argued that political democracy in nation-states is dependent upon certain levels of social and economic development. Some authors (Lipset and Cutright) argue that a particular complex of social and economic requisites appears necessary for the institutionalization and maintenance of democracy. Others (Lerner and Pye) suggest that national political development of any form is predicated upon the development of a system of communications sufficiently sophisticated to overcome the parochialism of traditional society. Still others (Almond and Verba) find social factors such as education crucial for the development of those attitudes deemed adequate for active citizens of democratic polities.By definition, political democracy in nationstates requires some minimal level of citizen participation in decision making. Historically the most effective method of institutionalizing such participation is through some form of representative government. This mechanism permits groups of citizens with common preferences to support representatives who will, in turn, attempt to schedule those preferences for decision by the government. Groups of representatives will form coalitions in an attempt to insure that their common preferences will be enacted into public policy. Because preferences in society are likely to vary in direction and intensity, the successful implementation of political democracy imposes two requirements. One, communication of preferences among competing groups, must be widespread. If they are not, it will be difficult for groups with shared preferences to combine their resources such that “majority” preferences can be successfully implemented. Indeed at a more basic level, communication is necessary for the identification and articulation of common preferences. Second, groups within the citizenry holding competing preferences must be socialized into the procedural norms of the system. Most important is the acceptance of the norms of compliance so that groups which “lose” on any given issue (enactment of a preference set) do not withdraw from the decision system or opt to overthrow it. In short, two primary conditions for the maintenance of any system of political democracy are, (1) communication among members of the political system and, (2) socialization into the “rules of the game.”

To provide access to education for all Indonesians, the government develops both formal and nonformal education both of which are to produce qualified man power as stated in the Acts of No. 20, 2003. However, to do this non-formal education should have teachers and education personnel fulfilling the requirements of quality and quantity. This article discusses a number of problems in providing teachers and education personnel for non formal education. It invites the universities organizing teachers training to develop programs for the teachers of nonformal education. Due to the big number of the teachers with the variety of specialties needed at present and in the future, this article suggests developing and strengthening the existing teacher training program at the university to become a Faculty of Non Formal Teachers.

This narrative study, informed by Fullan’s (2001) change theory, explored implementers’ experiences with change related to the implementation and sustainability of the capitation grant policy in Ghana. The study focused on seven change agents who in this circumstance were part of the implementers of the policy working in the Kwahu west municipality in the Eastern Region of Ghana. Nine study conclusions emerged from the study. First, the abolition of the school fees alleviated the burden on poor parents. Second, the capitation grant constitutes the Ghana government’s grand agenda of making education easily accessible to all Ghanaian children of school-going age at the basic school level. Third, the capitation grant policy is a strategy that helps to attract children to go to school at the basic level. Fourth, the policy is needful in the municipality because it helps to increase access to education for brilliant but needy pupils. Fifth, the stakeholders of the policy have embraced the policy and its full implementation satisfactorily well. Sixth, the policy has shaped implementers’ thinking about the great influence the government can make in bringing education close to the doorstep of every Ghanaian child of school-going age. Seventh, information sharing among the implementers is important, and they do so by utilizing different means and tools. Eighth, while some implementers described their experiences with their co-implementers as satisfactory, others described it as an eye-opening experience. Finally, the study indicated that it is very worrying when grants are delayed since it’s mainly used to run the school. This study concluded with suggestions for further research and implications for theory and practice.

Ngcobo J’s conception of democracy is more in keeping with the ancient understanding, found in the Athenian city-state, traditional African societies and in the writings of Karl Marx. The traditional conception, affirmed by Rousseau, requires the direct participation of the population in the decision-making processes that affect their lives. The Athenian notion of the participation of the population in a town hall meeting is not practical in a large nation state. Ngcobo J developed a hybrid model that combines elected representatives and participatory democracy. Under this model, the lawmaker is required to provide for meaningful modes of participation by bringing the opportunity for participation to the people through provincial participation. In the annals of comparative constitutional law, Ngcobo J’s opinion is an outlier, which represents a unique and fresh perspective of democracy much like the Constitutional Court’s development of socio-economic rights and the use of the reasonableness standard to determine the legality of government conduct. Ngcobo J does not equate political equality with equality of opportunity. Apart from requiring the government to provide for citizen participation in the polity, he imposes a further duty on the government to take affirmative steps like educational programs road shows, workshops, media programs and publications to make citizen participation a reality for the historically disadvantaged and those with unequal education. His perspective offers a cogent instruction to the rest of the world, in this period where democracy is under serious strain.
