Paperback. Condición: Good. One of the most far-reaching transformations in our era is the wave of digital technologies rolling over--and upending--nearly every aspect of life. Work and leisure, family and friendship, community and citizenship have all been modified by now-ubiquitous digital tools and platforms. Digital Technology and Democratic Theory looks closely at one significant facet of our rapidly evolving digital lives: how technology is radically changing our lives as citizens and participants in democratic governments. To understand these transformations, this book brings together contributions by scholars from multiple disciplines to wrestle with the question of how digital technologies shape, reshape, and affect fundamental questions about democracy and democratic theory. As expectations have whiplashed--from Twitter optimism in the wake of the Arab Spring to Facebook pessimism in the wake of the 2016 US election--the time is ripe for a more sober and long-term assessment. How should we take stock of digital technologies and their promise and peril for reshaping democratic societies and institutions? To answer, this volume broaches the most pressing technological changes and issues facing democracy as a philosophy and an institution.…

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Politicians have failed us. But democracy doesnt have to.Bought by special interests, detached from real life, obsessed with reelection. Politicians make big promises, deliver little to nothing, and keep the game rigged in their favor. But what can we do?In Politics Without Politicians, acclaimed political theorist Helene Landemore asks and answers a radical question: What if we didnt need politicians at all? What if everyday peopleunder the right conditionscould govern much better?With disarming clarity and a deep sense of urgency, Landemore argues that electoral politics is broken but democracy isnt. Weve just been doing it wrong. Drawing on ancient Athenian practices and contemporary citizens assemblies, Landemore champions an alternative approach that is alive, working, and growing around the world: civic lotteries that select everyday people to governnot as career politicians but as temporary stewards of the common good.When regular citizens come together in this way, they make smarter, fairer, more forward-thinking decisions, often bringing out the best in one another. Witnessing this process firsthand, Landemore has learned that democracy should be like a good party where even the shyest guests feel welcome to speak, listen, and be heard.With sharp analysis and real-world examples, drawing from her experience with deliberative processes in France and elsewhere, Landemore shows us how to move beyond democracy as a spectator sport, embracing it as a shared practicenot just in the voting booth but in shaping the laws and policies that govern our lives.This is not a book about whats wrongits a manifesto for whats possible. If youve ever felt powerless, Politics Without Politicians will show you how We the People take back democracy.

"Open Democracy envisions what true government by mass leadership could look like."-Nathan Heller, New YorkerHow a new model of democracy that opens up power to ordinary citizens could strengthen inclusiveness, responsiveness, and accountability in modern societies To the ancient Greeks, democracy meant gathering in public and debating laws set by a randomly selected assembly of several hundred citizens. To the Icelandic Vikings, democracy meant meeting every summer in a field to discuss issues until consensus was reached. Our contemporary representative democracies are very different. Modern parliaments are gated and guarded, and it seems as if only certain people-with the right suit, accent, wealth, and connections-are welcome. Diagnosing what is wrong with representative government and aiming to recover some of the lost openness of ancient democracies, Open Democracy presents a new paradigm of democracy in which power is genuinely accessible to ordinary citizens.Hélène Landemore favors the ideal of "representing and being represented in turn" over direct-democracy approaches. Supporting a fresh nonelectoral understanding of democratic representation, Landemore recommends centering political institutions around the "open mini-public"-a large, jury-like body of randomly selected citizens gathered to define laws and policies for the polity, in connection with the larger public. She also defends five institutional principles as the foundations of an open democracy: participatory rights, deliberation, the majoritarian principle, democratic representation, and transparency.Open Democracy demonstrates that placing ordinary citizens, rather than elites, at the heart of democratic power is not only the true meaning of a government of, by, and for the people, but also feasible and, today more than ever, urgently needed.…

PAPERBACK, attractive copy, very good. BERNHOLZ, LUCY / LANDEMORE, HÉLÈNE, 1976- / REICH, ROB, ed. . Digital technology and democratic theory. Edited by Lucy Bernholz, Hélène Landemore, and Rob Reich. Chicago: The University of Chicago Press, 2021, 1st printing number line starting with 1, 321pp., . "One of the most far-reaching transformations in our era is the wave of digital technologies rolling over-and upending-nearly every aspect of life. Work and leisure, family and friendship, community and citizenship-all transformed by now-ubiquitous digital tools and platforms. Digital Technology and Democratic Theory explores a particularly unsettling and rapidly evolving facet of our new digital lives: transformations that affect our lives as citizens and participants in democratic governments. To understand these transformations, scholars from multiple disciplines (computer science, philosophy, political science, economics, history, and media and communications/journalism) wrestle with the question of how digital technologies shape, reshape, and affect fundamental questions about democracy and democratic theory. The contributors consider what democratic theory-broadly defined as normative theorizing about the values and institutional design of democracy-can bring to the practice of digital technologies. From the connectivity and transmission of information that has inspired positive change through movements such as the Arab Spring and #MeToo to the nefarious spread of distrust and outright disruption in democratic processes, this volume broaches the most pressing technological changes and issues facing not just individual states, but democracy as a philosophy and institution" - CONTENTS: Democracy and the digital public sphere / Joshua Cohen and Archon Fung -- Open democracy and digital technologies / Hélène Landemore -- Purpose-Built digital associations / Lucy Bernholz -- Digital exclusion: a politics of refusal / Seeta Peña Gangadharan -- Presence of absence: exploring the democratic significance of silence / Mike Ananny -- The artisan and the decision factory: the organizational dynamics of private speech governance / Robyn Caplan -- The democratic consequences of the new public sphere / Henry Farrell and Melissa Schwartzberg -- Democratic societal collaboration in a whitewater world / David Lee, Margaret Levi, and John Seely Brown -- From philanthropy to democracy: rethinking governance and funding of high-quality news in the digital age / Julia Cagé -- Technologizing democracy or democratizing technology?
