This book addresses the socio-technical constitution of civic
communication in increasingly digital democracies. Despite
problematic phenomena like hate speech in online commenting, it
argues that citizens' potential for resisting technological
inscriptions in digital media remains a fundamental democratic
right. While producers inscribe anticipations for how people should
be discussing political issues into commenting interfaces, citizens
still resist these technological inscriptions in their commenting
practices. This dialectic interrelation between interfaces and
practices highlights the inadequacy of purely technological
solutions for undemocratic tendencies in digital media.
