The book turns the well-known sites of contemporary Euro-American democracy - elections, bureaucracies, public debates and citizen participation - into fluctuating democratic situations where supposedly untouchable democratic ideals are contested and warped in practice. The empirical cases demonstrate that democracy cannot be reduced to theoretical schemes of conflict, institutions or deliberation. Instead, they offer an urgently needed renewal of our understanding of democratic politics at a time when conventional ideas increasingly fail to capture current events such as Brexit, Trump and Covid19. 606 $aDemocracy 606 $aTechnology$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aDemocracy. 615 0$aTechnology$xPolitical aspects. 702 $aBirkbak$b Andreas 702 $aPapazu$b Irina 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUkOxU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910842300903321 996 $aDemocratic Situations$94398264 997 $aUNINA
