This edited book is the first of its kind to systematically address
the intersection of e-democracy and European politics. It
contributes to an improved understanding of the role that new media
technologies play in European politics and the potential impact
that Internet-based political participation processes may have on
modern-day representative democracy in Europe. A unique, holistic
approach is taken to examine e-democracy's current state and
prospects in Europe from three, partially overlapping and
interlocking perspectives: e-public, e-participation and e-voting.
The authors provide both theory-inspired reflections on
e-democracy's contribution to the formation of the European public
sphere, as well as rich empirical analyses of contemporary
e-participation phenomena such as the European Citizens' Initiative
or e-voting practices in Estonia. Based on the presented findings,
the concluding chapter combines a prospective outlook with
recommendations for future paths towards meaningful integration of
e-democracy in European politics and governance.
