This book argues that in the digital era, a reinvention of
democracy is urgently necessary. It discusses the mounting evidence
showing that digitalisation is pushing classical parliamentary
democracy to its limits, offering examples such as how living in a
filter bubble and debating with political bots is profoundly
changing democratic communication, making it more emotional,
hysterical even, and less rational. It also explores how classical
democracy involves long, slow thinking and decision processes,
which don't fit to the ever-increasing speed of the digital world,
and examines the technical developments some fear will lead to
governance by algorithms.In the digitalised world, democracy no
longer functions as it has in the past. This does not mean waving
goodbye to democracy - instead we need to reinvent it. How this
could work is the central theme of this book.
