This book throws new light on the way in which the Internet impacts
on democracy. Based on Jurgen Habermas' discourse-theoretical
reconstruction of democracy, it examines one of the world's
largest, most diverse but also most unequal democracies, Brazil, in
terms of the broad social and legal effects the internet has had.
Focusing on the Brazilian constitutional evolution, the book
examines how the Internet might impact on the legitimacy of a
democratic order and if, and how, it might yield opportunities for
democratic empowerment. The book also assesses the ways in which
law, as an institution and a system, reacts to the changes and
challenges brought about by the Internet: the ways in which law may
retain its strength as an integrative force, avoiding a 'virtual'
legitimacy crisis.
