What is the future of democracy? Is it steadily improving in scope,
depth, and accountability? Is it being marginalized by economic
forces? Or has it already progressed too far? This book argues that
none of these assessments is right, and instead that democracy is
becoming 'hyper.' An increasingly well-educated citizenry and freer
flow of information contribute to the intensification of democracy,
but at the same time begin to impede decision-making by contesting
more and more of the cognitive preconditions that decision-making
rests upon. Under hyperdemocracy, democracy begins to undermine
itself. This book applies the idea of 'reflexive modernization' to
democratic theory, setting out a new perspective on the challenges
democracy faces.
