Re-conceptualizing the aesthetics of digital democracy. 330 $aEver-stronger ties between technology, entertainment and design are transforming our relationship with democratic decision-making. When we are online, or when we use digital products and services, we tend to focus more on certain factors like speed of service and user-friendliness, and to overlook the costs ? both for ourselves and others. As a result, a widening gap separates our expectations of everything related to digitalization ? including government ? and the actual practice of democratic governance. Democratic regulators, unable to meet citizens? demands for tangible, fast and gratifying returns, are seeing the poorest results ever recorded in terms of interest, engagement and retention, despite using the most cutting-edge technologies. This book explores various aspects of the relationship between democracy, technology and entertainment. These include, on the one hand, the role that digital technology has in strengthening our collective intelligence, nurturing empathicrelations between citizens and democratic institutions, and supporting processes of political aggregation, deliberation and collaboration. On the other hand, they comprise the challenges accompanying digital technology for representation, transparency and inclusivity in democratic decision-making. The book?s main argument is that digital democratic spaces should be redesigned to narrow the gap between the expectations and outcomes of democratic decision-making. It suggests abandoning the notion of digital participatory rights as being fast and easy to enjoy. It also refutes the notion that digital democratic decision-making can only be effective when it delivers rapid and successful responses to the issues of the day, regardless of their complexity. 410 0$aSpringer Textbooks in Law,$x2510-0009 606 $aPublic law 606 $aPolitical planning 606 $aDigital media 606 $aPublic Law 606 $aPublic Policy 606 $aDigital and New Media 615 0$aPublic law. 615 0$aPolitical planning. 615 0$aDigital media. 615 14$aPublic Law. 615 24$aPublic Policy. 615 24$aDigital and New Media. 676 $a321.8 700 $aSgueo$b Gianluca$0511140 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910739461303321 996 $aThe Design of Digital Democracy$93567298 997 $aUNINA
