Internet-Mediated Participation Beyond the Nation State

More about the book

Focusing on the challenge of bridging the gap between citizens and democratic institutions, the book explores internet-mediated multi-stakeholder processes implemented by international organizations like the European Union and United Nations. It investigates how these initiatives aim to democratize decision-making and address criticisms of a 'democratic deficit' in post-modern democracy, offering insights into the evolving relationship between technology and governance.
