Internet e comunicação política: um novo desafio à democracia
Keywords:
Ideology of Information Society. Digital Divide. Deliberative Democracy.Abstract
How important is Internet for democracy? Taking the model of deliberative democracy as our reference, we explore the answer to this question from a normative point of view. We aim to define the conditions of a possible development of the new information and communication technologies that would allow renewing the public sphere. Against the conventional perspectives (which are naively optimist or irreducibly skeptical) to these issues, we look for an alternative approach. We begin by identifying some of the most common mistakes in those perspectives of the Internet, and we then advance what we consider to be the most relevant potentialities of this new medium that are able to contribute to the establishment of a public communication on a global scale, one that is more rational and politically vibrant.
