| Tiivistelmä: | New opportunities for democracy have been created by the contemporary societal transformation period. The rapid diffusion and introduction of new technology are increasingly providing many communities with new tools and methods which aid them in evolving old-fashioned representative, thin democracies into participatory and deliberative, strong democracies. In this symposium, a group of researchers of the new approaches to the future vision of stronger, more inclusive representative democracy discuss and elaborate the way ahead on this evolutionary path, focusing on the transitional politics of electronic democracy, that is "teledemocracy", which harnesses information and communications technologies for the benefit of more open and influential citizen decision making and self-governance. |
