    "responses": "0:  Public deliberation is never, or almost never allowed.<br>1:  Some limited public deliberations are allowed but the public below the elite levels is almost always either unaware of major policy debates or unable to take part in them.<br>2:  Public deliberation is not repressed but nevertheless infrequent and non-elite actors are typically controlled and/or constrained by the elites.<br>3:  Public deliberation is actively encouraged and some autonomous non-elite groups participate, but it is confined to a small slice of specialized groups that tends to be the same across issue-areas.<br>4:  Public deliberation is actively encouraged and a relatively broad segment of non-elite groups often participate and vary with different issue-areas.<br>5:  Large numbers of non-elite groups as well as ordinary people tend to discuss major policies among themselves, in the media, in associations or neighborhoods, or in the streets. Grass-roots deliberation is common and unconstrained.",
